Asking Price: $1,699,000 | Active​​​​​​​

Former model home with a stunning hilltop view! 36 years in the same family, and never rented! Just reduced to $1,699,000, below appraisal! This is the only single story 4-bedroom house available in Encinitas for under $1,949,000 (9/8/25 MLS). Be in before the holidays, and before we take it off the market to await "selling season" and higher prices/demand. It has a 180-degree hilltop view of La Costa, and doesn't require CA Fair Plan fire insurance! The HOA is a low $67 per month, with pools, pickleball, and tennis courts. The builder clearly selected the best lot for this former model home and sales office, which is one reason why it has not been on the market in 36 years! It has been proudly owned and maintained by a Purple Heart Medal awarded POW and WWII U.S. Air Force B-29 pilot and his wife, who cherished sitting on the back patio and taking in the spectacular view and ocean breeze. This house has over a 17% larger lot than the same model two doors down, which sold for $1,750,000 in March and which does not have the open-fence panoramic view and added windows in the master bedroom. Research shows that in San Diego, views of preserved open space are capitalized into home values; greenbelt/open-space view premiums are commonly in the high single digits to low-teens, with exceptional panoramas higher. Recent peer-reviewed work on scenic views reports 831% differentials for top-quality vistas versus otherwise similar non-view homes (sources: Trust for Public Land San Diego Report; City of San Diego Master Plan Property Value & Open Space report; The Appraisal Journal on
