Discover luxury in this meticulously reimagined Rancho Ponderosa home. Ideally situated with views over Macarena Park, where families, kids and dogs gather to play and socialize.

The primary suite offers a spa-like bath, dual vanity, multiple closets and views toward Encinitas. All new landscaping with modern hardscape, Bermuda grass and drought-tolerant plants on drip irrigation. Finished garage with epoxy flooring and Hex lighting.
