About This Home
As of April 2024VINTAGE CHARMER! A delightful 1948 country cottage, on a private road in a peaceful, hillside neighborhood of Vista... Off-the-beaten-path, but with quick and easy access to Highway 78, and just 15 minutes to the beach. Enjoy distant views to the west, beautiful sunsets, and coastal breezes. This lovely single story home features lots of natural light, crown molding throughout, and a living/dining great room with merbau wood flooring, arched doorways, and French doors leading to a large wrap-around wood deck (great for indoor/outdoor entertaining!). Other features include a galley style kitchen with ample cupboard space, an updated bathroom with subway tiling and a built-in beadboard linen cabinet, a built-in hallway bookcase, ceiling fans in the two bedrooms, and an attached one-car garage with washer/dryer, built-in shelving, and tons of storage space. The exterior of the property features a quaint (matching!) garden shed, a very private garden off the kitchen with a spectacular French lavender plant, and a fully-fenced, pet-friendly backyard with loquat, pomegranate and wisteria, a brick dining patio, and impressive granite boulders in the natural landscape. Highlights of the front of the property include a charming white picket fence, hybrid tea roses, a Granny Smith apple tree, a key lime/lemon hybrid, a natural granite stone retaining wall, and a majestic Brazilian Pepper tree, adding to the wonderful curb appeal. The large driveway and additional gravel parking pad can accommodate up to 7 cars for group gatherings. This one-of-a-kind vintage cottage has been lovingly-maintained, and is in move-in condition. If you're looking for a cozy home with loads of character and charm, this is a must-see!
