Tucked within a tranquil 12-residence community just moments from the coast, this thoughtfully updated end-unit captures the essence of easy Encinitas living. Ideally positioned along the vibrant 101 corridor, you’re just a short stroll to the beach, morning coffee, favorite bistros, boutique shopping, and lively local spots—offering a lifestyle that feels both connected and effortlessly relaxed. Inside, the home has been carefully refreshed with clean, modern updates. The main level features hard surface flooring, while new carpet adds warmth upstairs. The kitchen is equipped with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a newer induction range, and refrigerator. Bathrooms have been tastefully updated, including a fully remodeled upstairs bath and refreshed fixtures below. Both bedrooms and the full bathroom are located upstairs, providing a functional layout. Additional upgrades include updated ceiling fans and window coverings. A standout feature of the home is its unique private outdoor space, complete with turf, newer fencing, custom garden beds, and separate gate. Also included is one covered parking space with storage, one uncovered space, and conveniently located shared laundry just adjacent to the unit. A rare opportunity to own a low-maintenance coastal retreat in one of Leucadia’s most desirable, walkable locations!
