Property Description
Priced for high activity!! Experience modern sophistication and laid-back North County charm in the gated enclave of Rancho Tesoro. This 2019-built community offers breathtaking views of rolling foothills and vibrant California sunsets. Enjoy exclusive access to “The Cabana” resort-style pool, BBQ pavilions, and lush parks. At the heart of this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home is a showstopper kitchen where culinary dreams come alive—imagine a generous quartz island with ample seating, premium stainless appliances, and a custom-built bar area, perfect for everything from lively weekend brunches to cozy weeknight dinners. The open-concept great room, bathed in natural light and grounded by luxury plank flooring, invites connection and relaxation. The thoughtful layout offers ultimate flexibility. Step inside to a sunlit home office or optional fourth bedroom with expansive under-stairs storage. Upstairs, a versatile bonus loft adapts to your lifestyle as a media lounge or creative studio. When it’s time to unwind, escape to your private backyard oasis: a low-maintenance patio with pavers and artificial turf, ideal for year-round lounging, grilling, games, or pets. Smart HVAC, oven, garage and front doors, assumable solar system, and a tankless water heater ensure comfort and efficiency for today’s lifestyle. Embrace the outdoors with direct access to Discovery Lake and miles of scenic trails or venture just moments away to explore North City’s vibrant dining and coffee scene. This isn’t just a house—it’s the elevated, connected lifestyle you’ve been searching for.
