    What's special

    Imagine starting your morning with a walk to the beach, grabbing coffee in Carlsbad Village, spending the afternoon surfing or biking along the coast, and ending the evening at one of the Village's acclaimed restaurants - all without getting in your car. Welcome to 261 Chinquapin Avenue, where the very best of coastal living is right outside your front door. The owners temporarily withdrew the home from the market to complete cosmetic updates and present it at its absolute best. The result is a beautifully refreshed, move-in ready home showcasing exceptional pride of ownership. Perfectly positioned just moments from the beach and vibrant Carlsbad Village, this beautifully remodeled home offers the rare opportunity to enjoy an authentic coastal lifestyle without sacrificing the privacy, comfort, and outdoor space that's so difficult to find this close to the ocean. A panoramic door opens to a beautifully finished backyard with stone pavers and low-maintenance turf, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living. Outdoor space like this is a true luxury in a downtown beach neighborhood, offering the perfect place to entertain, unwind, or simply enjoy San Diego's year-round climate. More than a beautifully remodeled home, this is a lifestyle - where the beach, Carlsbad Village, boutique shopping, exceptional dining, community events, and breathtaking sunsets become part of your everyday routine.
