    What's special

    Just four doors from Stone Steps Beach access, this beautifully renovated 3-bedroom, 3-bath home (PLUS detached ADU!) offers the coastal Encinitas lifestyle at its finest. Inside, thoughtful updates create a fresh, move-in-ready feel throughout — bright living spaces, modern finishes, and a layout built for easy everyday living or effortless entertaining. A detached ADU studio adds exceptional flexibility: multigenerational living, a private guest suite, rental income potential, or the ultimate home office/creative space, all with its own separate footprint and private access off the alley. But the real showstopper is the location. A short distance to one of Encinitas' most beloved beach accesses, with the surf breaks, sandy beach, and sunset views that define North County coastal living. Wander to the local spots for morning coffee, evening waves, or weekend gatherings. Whether you're searching for a primary residence, a savvy investment with income potential, or your forever beach home, this opportunity delivers a rare combination of renovated comfort, added flexibility, and an unbeatable location.
