About This Home

As of June 2019

Lovingly cared for home. Original owner, with recent upgrades to various parts of the house. Spacious backyard and large front yard make this an ideal house for a family just starting out. The home has great "bones" and in good shape. This is a great location and very appealing layout. Perfect for the family looking to be close to everything. Located adjacent to Lynhaven Elementary School, it does not get any closer. Your child can also apply to be in the Del Mar High School IB program. Del Mar is one of only a few schools to offer this wonderful option.
