Property Detail

Description

Tucked into the quiet curve of a cul-de-sac, this San Marcos residence offers the kind of rare, expansive "breathing room" that is nearly impossible to find in modern developments. Situated on nearly a quarter-acre with the freedom of no HOA or Mello-Roos fees, the property is a private sanctuary. The massive backyard is an orchard of mature orange, lemon, peach, and apple trees, offering a secluded space for children to play or for hosting long summer barbecues under the gazebo. For the hobbyist or the multi-vehicle family, the three-car garage and extra-long driveway provide a dedicated workspace for projects and plenty of room for oversized trucks. Weekend life here is effortlessly active, with both Nob Hill Park and Arboles Park just a short stroll away, providing perfect local spots for afternoon playdates and neighborhood walks. The interior of the home is designed for both impressive first impressions and comfortable daily living, beginning with a grand slate-tiled entrance and a dramatic circular redwood staircase. The heart of the home is a chef-inspired kitchen where cherry cabinetry and granite countertops meet high-end stainless steel appliances, all centered around a functional island that’s perfect for pancake mornings or evening homework sessions. This space flows naturally into a cozy den, where a marble wood-burning fireplace creates a warm, grounded atmosphere for family movie nights. The floor plan is remarkably flexible, offering three dedicated bedrooms plus a versatile optional fourth bedroom, ideal as a quiet home office, a dedicated playroom, or a guest suite. Upstairs, the primary retreat serves as a quiet escape from the day’s hustle, featuring custom built-ins and views of the surrounding mountains. Beyond the property lines, the location is a masterclass in convenience for a busy family. The morning routine is simplified by being within easy walking distance of top rated Knob Hill elementary school, while the practicalities of life (like quick trips to Costco and Walmart or dinner at a variety of nearby restaurants) are less than 1 mile away. This home strikes a unique balance, offering the peace and privacy of an established, oversized lot with the modern accessibility of a central San Marcos location. It is a property that doesn’t just offer a place to live, but a backdrop for a lifestyle where privacy, space, and community convenience all coexist.
