Set against beautiful lake and mountain views in the highly desired Panorama community of Lake San Marcos, this 1st floor, light-filled single-story end-unit residence offers an exceptional combination of scenery, flexibility, and indoor-outdoor living. The sought-after floor plan features 2 bedrooms plus a versatile den/flex room, 2 bathrooms, three separate patios, and a rare 2-car garage. Abundant windows bring natural light throughout the home, while the split-bedroom layout provides separation between the spacious primary suite and the secondary bedroom with adjacent full bath. The primary suite includes a custom walk-in closet and direct access to an approximately 11' x 13' patio, creating a peaceful extension of the living space. In 2014 the entire condo was remodeled with additional updates through the years including dual-pane vinyl windows and an updated HVAC system. The updated kitchen offers a rare gas stove along with an added pantry and coffee bar, while a cozy gas fireplace adds warmth and character to the main living area. New energy-efficient high-rise commodes provide an additional practical update. Outdoor living is a standout, with three patios offering multiple places to relax and take in the surroundings. A tiled outdoor patio creates an inviting space for morning coffee while enjoying sunrise views across the mountains and lake. The Panorama neighborhood enjoys its own pool and spa. The home is close to a private hiking path to the lake, Amalfi restaurant, 2 golf courses and several social clubs. Around 2018, the HOA completed significant community improvements including resurfacing the roads, replacing roofs, and painting building exteriors. The HOA fee covers water, sewer, garbage and additional use of Lake San Marcos amenities and the Lodge. Lake San Marcos residents enjoy access to two additional pools, a clubhouse, pickleball, paddle tennis and tennis courts, along with lake activities including boating, kayaking, paddleboarding, and fishing. For an extra fee, you can enjoy a romantic gondola ride around the lake or dine at Amalfi Restaurant within The Lakehouse featuring serene lake views. The community also includes 24-hour security patrol. With its end location, first-floor single-story design, flexible floor plan, rare 2-car garage, multiple patios, and beautiful lake and mountain views, this home offers a distinctive opportunity to experience the Lake San Marcos lifestyle. Come and see firsthand what makes this setting so special.
