Upgraded, newer home that delivers Carlsbad-adjacent living without the Carlsbad price! Located within a gated community in the San Marcos School District, this home offers the kind of lifestyle buyers are searching for. Enjoy walkable access to Starbucks, Target, restaurants, and retail shopping, while being minutes from Bressi Ranch, Carlsbad’s stunning beaches, LEGOLAND, Encinitas, and major employment corridors. Residents enjoy private community amenities including a sparkling pool, spa, clubhouse, playground, and dog park. Inside, the open layout makes everyday living easy. The kitchen with white cabinetry, quartz countertops, and a custom island with seating, naturally becomes the heart of the home. Laminate plank flooring on the main level offers durability and style, while upstairs, two spacious bedrooms each feature their own private bath — ideal for guests, roommates, or growing households. Smart home features add convenience, and the epoxy-finished two-car garage with overhead storage keeps everything organized. This isn’t just a condo. Seller is a licensed real estate agent.
