Homes like this do not come around. Only the second time on the market since 1973, and one step onto the roughly 1,200 sq ft private-use terrace tells you why nobody wanted to leave. The view sweeps a full 180 degrees over the 16th fairway at Omni La Costa Resort & Spa and changes all day, from sunrise on the greens to golden light right before dinner. An exclusive use outdoor space this large is almost unheard of in condo living. Taken to the studs and rebuilt in 2021 with a renovated kitchen, renovated baths, new flooring, and clean contemporary finishes throughout. Natural light pours in from every direction. Glass sliders open off the living room and primary suite, French doors off the kitchen, and the whole home breathes with coastal air the moment you open it up. Sunny SoCal indoor-outdoor living with no line between the two. The open layout works just as well for a dinner party as a normal Tuesday, and in-unit laundry keeps it simple and convenient. You are minutes from world-class golf, the beach, top-rated schools, scenic trails, and all the dining and shopping in Encinitas and Carlsbad, in one of North County’s most sought-after communities.
