Beautifully positioned on a flat cul-de-sac with no homes across the street, this distinctive Tuscan-style home enjoys beautiful views, including ocean views, and an exceptionally versatile floor plan. With 5 bedrooms, a first-floor ensuite, expansive primary suite, and one-of-a-kind loft/library, the home offers a combination of thoughtful spaces, architectural character, and an enviable San Elijo Hills setting. The highly regarded schools, community parks, shops, and amenities are all just minutes away. The first-floor ensuite bedroom provides tremendous flexibility for in-laws, parents, guests, or a college-age child. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite features a generous sitting area and private balcony with ocean views. The oversized walk-in closet offers custom built-in storage and direct access to the beautifully updated bath, featuring elegant light-toned tile flooring and a gorgeous freestanding pedestal tub. Two additional upstairs bedrooms share a convenient Jack-and-Jill bathroom, while the fourth upstairs bedroom has its own full bath. A truly distinctive feature of the home is the loft/library, where floor-to-ceiling custom bookshelves, a rolling ladder, and mezzanine overlook create a unique and inviting space. The chef’s kitchen takes advantage of the views and opens naturally to the main living areas, creating an easy connection between the kitchen, living, and entertaining spaces. The home also features an owned solar system, two Tesla Powerwall batteries, and a Tesla EV charger. The spacious backyard is beautifully landscaped with multiple outdoor spaces and wonderful views, including views of the ocean from the property. Distinctive architecture, thoughtful spaces, and beautiful views come together throughout this special home, creating a setting with character at every turn.
