Escondido Home For Sale

STRICTLY BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. Tucked away on a private cul-de-sac in one of Escondido’s most peaceful neighborhoods, this spacious 4-bedroom, 3-bath home blends comfort, versatility, and investment potential. Set on an elevated .36-acre lot with sweeping views and no HOA, it offers privacy, charm, and convenience — just minutes from top-rated schools, Kit Carson Park, Vineyard Golf Course, Westfield North County Mall, the San Diego Safari Park, and the coast. Filled with natural light, the home has been thoughtfully renovated in 2015 and 2021, with fresh paint inside and out this year. Upgrades include paid-off solar, dual-paned windows, ceiling fans, central AC with a smart thermostat, and an ADT security system. The kitchen features updated cabinetry, granite counters, and a stylish backsplash that flows into the dining and living areas. The lower level, with its own entrance, full kitchen, bath, and fireplace, is ideal for multi-generational living or rental income. Both entries are stair-free, offering accessibility for aging parents. With ample storage, a laundry/work area, and a detached storage unit, it’s also well-suited for a work-from-home lifestyle. Outside, a gated driveway with automated entry accommodates 8+ cars and welcomes guests with a white picket fence, turf lawn, roses, palms, and low-maintenance landscaping. Expansive upper and lower decks showcase sunrise-to-sunset views, while fruit trees — including orange, guava, fig, nectarine, lemon, and papaya — add a loved, well-tended touch. The versatile lower level includes its own private entrance, full kitchen, bathroom, and a cozy log-burning fireplace — making it an ideal space for multi-generational living, rental income, or even dividing into two units. Both entry points are accessible without stairs, creating an excellent option for aging parents. With abundant storage throughout, including a dedicated laundry/tool/work area and an additional detached storage unit, the home also doubles as the perfect work-from-home setup with valuable tax benefits. Outdoors, the property truly shines. The gated driveway with automated entry accommodates 8+ cars, while the front yard welcomes guests with a classic white picket fence, quality artificial turf, palms, roses, and other low-maintenance landscaping supported by a sprinkler system. Security is enhanced with wired Night Owl cameras monitoring every entry point. Expansive upper and lower decks showcase breathtaking sunrises, sunsets, and rolling hill views. Fruit trees — including orange, guava, fig, nectarine, lemon, and papaya — alongside vibrant rose gardens make the property feel loved and well cared for.
