About This Home

As of May 2026

Completely reimagined and expanded, this stunning Encinitas residence has been transformed into a modern European-inspired smart home blending architectural design, technology, and seamless indoor-outdoor living. Backing to a protected canyon with peek-a-boo lagoon views in the quiet Quail Gardens community, the home offers privacy while remaining close to the best of coastal Encinitas. This 2,860 sq ft open-concept floor plan features soaring ceilings, smooth drywall finishes, floor-to-ceiling windows, and dual 20’ LaCantina doors creating exceptional natural light and indoor-outdoor flow. The chef’s kitchen is designed for entertaining with an oversized island, smart appliances, custom cabinetry, and walk-in utility room. Flexible studio space with glass garage door, built-in cabinetry, and adjacent full bath offers multiple uses including creative studio, guest suite, office, or potential garage conversion/potential junior ADU. Upstairs includes two primary suites plus two additional bedrooms, spa-inspired European bathrooms with bidets and freestanding soaking tub, and a dramatic 40’ glass-railed balcony overlooking the canyon. The home is equipped with smart-home technology throughout, including remote lighting & window treatments, dual-zone HVAC with recessed vents, internet-controlled irrigation, multi-zone exterior lighting, solar power, Tesla and universal EV charging, modern gas fireplace, outdoor hot/cold shower, and extensive attic storage. Located near the scenic Indian Head Trails, a 56-acre open space with miles of hiking and biking trails winding through the beautiful Encinitas Ranch Golf Course, and just minutes to beaches, shopping, top-rated schools, YMCA, and freeway access. Low HOA and no mello-roos.
