About This Home
Welcome to 734 Brass Lantern, a custom-upgraded saltwater pool home nestled in the hills of San Marcos, offering sweeping southwesterly views of the city and Cal State San Marcos. This property blends energy efficiency, craftsmanship, and outdoor living into one exceptional residence. The heart of the home is a beautifully designed kitchen featuring premium Bosch stainless steel appliances—including the stove, refrigerator, microwave, and dishwasher—surrounded by custom cabinetry made of Russian Baltic birch and heart Douglas fir. Quartz countertops and laminate flooring run throughout, adding both style and durability. Pella dual-glazed vinyl windows bring in natural light while maintaining energy efficiency. Energy-conscious buyers will appreciate the leased solar system. A 40-year composition roof was installed just prior to the solar installation, offering lasting protection. The backyard is a true oasis, anchored by a saltwater pool with Pentair equipment, including a new saltwater generator installed in October 2025 and a recently replaced filter. Surrounding the pool and yard is an extensive collection of fruit trees and edible landscaping, featuring a finger lime, Meyer lemon, Mexican lime, pomegranate, six types of apples, Navel oranges, figs, guava, three types of tangerines, three pear trees, Bacon and Naughba avocados. There are also kiwi plants, along with raspberry, blueberry, and blackberry vines. The upper yard offers raised garden beds ideal for growing vegetables or seasonal flowers. Recent updates include fresh dining area and "touch-up" interior and exterior painting, reconstructed garage doors, and new landscape mulch throughout, giving the home a polished, move-in-ready feel. This home also features a 200-amp main electrical panel, with a dedicated 100-amp sub-panel in the garage, which also features 220V power, perfect for EV charging or a workshop. The spacious three-car garage is structurally reinforced over-sized beams, concrete piers and 2"x6" joists, offering storage or workshop potential. Adjacent, a 6-inch thick poured concrete RV pad, reinforced with rebar placed at 24" on center, ensures strength for heavy-duty use. The rear patio was also poured as a monolithic 6-inch slab, engineered to support future patio covers or other potential structural additions. Whether you're relaxing poolside, harvesting from your own orchard, or working on your next project in the garage, 734 Brass Lantern offers a rare blend of practicality, beauty, and lifestyle potential.
