    What's special

    Private, versatile property in the heart of Olde Carlsbad, designed to live far beyond its walls. Set on an expansive 10,000 sq ft lot, this fully reimagined single-level home is thoughtfully designed to extend beyond its footprint, blending indoor and outdoor living across multiple distinct spaces. The layout creates independent yet connected living areas, enhancing both space and functionality. The main residence features 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, with a warm, modern aesthetic and a seamless connection between interior and exterior living. Expansive bi-fold doors open to a covered front patio, creating a bright and inviting extension of the living space. A separate covered courtyard with a motorized shade system creates an additional outdoor living space — adaptable throughout the day for entertaining, relaxing, or more private use. The backyard completes the experience with a private retreat featuring a pool, spa, fire pit, and covered patio, designed for year-round enjoyment. What truly sets the property apart is its versatility. A fully permitted detached ADU with its own address, private entrance, kitchen, and living space offers significant flexibility for guests, rental income, or multigenerational living, while a separate backyard office provides a quiet, dedicated workspace. Thoughtfully rebuilt with high-quality finishes and modern systems throughout, the home also includes paid solar and smart home features for comfort and efficiency. Located just minutes from the beach, Carlsbad Village, and top-rated schools, this is a rare opportunity to own a home that truly adapts to the way you live today.
