Property Description

West of I-5 and only a few block to the beach, this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath cottage offers 993 sq ft of cozy coastal living on an oversized lot. Full of character and in original condition, this home is the perfect opportunity to restore, renovate, or enjoy as-is. The roomy living room is open and airy with many windows to let the sunshine in. Sit in the breakfast nook and enjoy views to the backyard. The carpets were removed to find oak hardwood floors. The laundry room with washer and dryer is conveniently located inside the house. The spacious yard features mature fruit trees, including orange, apricot, persimmon, macadamia nut and avocado, and plenty of room for expansion, gardening, or outdoor entertaining. Equipped with solar for energy efficiency. Two car garage. Easy access to I-5 and Coast Highway. Close to Swami's, Seaside Market, Moonlight State Beach, Stonesteps, Encinitas Community Park, Scripps Hospital, great shopping and many restaurants. Encinitas is a premier Southern California coastal city renowned for its world-class surf spots (like Swamis and Cardiff Reef), pristine beaches, and laid-back, vintage beach town culture. Located on Historic Highway 101, it is famous for the Self-Realization Fellowship Meditation Gardens, San Diego Botanic Garden, and a vibrant, walkable downtown. Home is being sold as-is. This is your rare chance to own a beachside retreat with endless potential!
