About This Home
As of December 2022If value is determined by a property’s location, this Encinitas townhome is second to none! Located in the heart of Leucadia, just steps to shopping, dining, parks and the world class beaches for which San Diego is famous! The two story, 2 bedroom, 1 ½ bath home has been recently renovated with luxury vinyl plank floors, completely updated bathrooms, newer windows and roof and contains a fully fenced back patio area with access to the community driveway as well as two off street parking spaces and additional storage. A skylight in the primary bathroom floods the space with natural light and the primary bedroom has two closets and a private veranda. The secluded beaches of Leucadia are renowned by surfers and accessed by three well maintained stairways off Neptune Avenue. The historic North Coast Highway 101 business district attracts locals and tourists alike with its eclectic blend of restaurants, coffee shops, specialty stores and more. Stroll down to Pannikin Coffee & Tea, the Sunday Farmer’s Market or the 27,000 square foot Encinitas Library, home to social events throughout the year. Easy freeway access makes this location commuter friendly and the Encinitas Train Station is only a mile and a half away. Whether you’re looking for a primary residence, second home or long term investment opportunity, this property is ideal.
