About This Home
As of June 2025Great single level home on a HUGE corner lot with secure, sturdy gated side yard for RV, boat, toys and extra vehicles. Just 8 minutes from I-15 in a great location in East Escondido! This oversized lot has room to create your entertainer's backyard, add a garden or a pool or store your recreational toys. Possibly consider an ADU! The backyard has a fireplace for cozy evenings. There are some other great upgrades, too! In total, the seller spent approximately $75k for improvements to the home. The roof is only 2 years old, the hot water heater, scraped ceilings, interior paint & flooring, whole house fan, outside fireplace and bathroom updates are all within the last 4 years. The bedrooms are spacious and the bathrooms are renovated and contemporary. The primary bath has additional space to perhaps add an extra closet or other storage. In the kitchen, the dishwasher is newer and the seller just replaced the stove, microwave and refrigerator with new stainless steel models. One more thing, there are no Mello Roos taxes and no HOA fees! Escondido is known for its outdoor lifestyle with wineries, parks, hiking, biking and golf. The San Diego Safari Park is less than 10 min. away. What a perfect, affordable locale to enjoy everything San Diego is known for. The Carlsbad State Beach with Pacific Ocean sunsets is just 30 minutes away featuring quaint shopping, restaurants and fun nightlife in several beach cities. Please take a look to see if this is YOUR new home at an affordable price!
