About This Home
As of March 2025City sensibilities and country vibes. Why settle when you can have it all? Drive up and fall in love with the dream all over again. Enjoy relaxing breezes on this large corner lot that sits in a quiet neighborhood. The adorable cottage, set beautifully on an elevated perch, combines cozy with inspiring. Completely remodeled in 2016, you'll love the beamed ceilings when you enter the home and the fabulous functionality. The kitchen features stainless steel Frigidaire appliances and a tranquil view out to the gardens. The home has been recently refreshed with new paint throughout, offers central heat, dual paned windows, outdoor lights, warm wood floors and a new water heater. The interior is bathed in sunlight through fabulous windows that look out at the 1/3 acre of surrounding gardens. *See Supplement for More Details* The expansive 16,800 SF lot offers endless potential with views to the San Bernardino Mountains and Big Bear to the North, and on clear days to the Pacific Ocean to the West. It has been lovingly enriched with plantings of Dragon Fruit, Avocado, Kumquat, Grapefruit, Apple, Apricot, Nectarine, Saturn Peach, Plum and Almond Trees! Drought-resistant plants include Succulents and Foxtail Agave. There is plenty of room for RV or Boat parking and future expansion of the home or guest house addition is calling your name. Additional storage can be found in the subterranean crawl space below the house. Not to be missed is a 1-Car Garage, which also houses the laundry hookups. The property is located in a prime residential area of Vista with easy access to the freeways, beaches, Vista Transit Center and the variety of shopping and restaurants in Downtown Vista!
