Open the door and WOW! Views unlike anything else on the market! Here your serene and peaceful backyard is extended by unobstructed views of the gorgeous Calavera Nature Preserve (100+ acres!), Mount Calavera to your left, and a short hike away, Lake Calavera. Temperate year round, Carlsbad is the perfect place to enjoy the best of SoCal indoor/outdoor living. And with the beach just a few miles down the road, this location really is perfect. Not only is this house on a premium lot, it's highly upgraded and has a fantastic floor plan that offers lots of flexibility. Need a fifth bedroom? The home was designed with a large loft which has a closet and easily converts. How about a mother-in-law suite or a home office? The downstairs bedroom and bath work perfectly. Large windows bathe the house in natural light all day long. There are gorgeous distressed engineered maple floors and 9’ ceilings. The great room faces the view and has a fireplace with a new granite facade and mantle. There is a built-in entertainment center and the whole space is wired for sound. The open floor plan showcases the gorgeous kitchen with its large island, perfect for enjoying a glass of wine while cooking or watching TV. Recently remodeled, there are quartz counters, white cabinets and high-end appliances - a new stainless oven, newer dishwasher and KitchenAid cooktop – plus a stainless steel sink, custom pendant lighting and a large “cold room” pantry. The formal dining room has a lovely feel with wainscoting, built-in display shelves with accent lighting, and a hand blown glass chandelier. White riser stairs bring in a beachy feel and lead to the loft and three other bedrooms. The loft is perfect for casual hanging out on movie night. Next to the loft is a built-in desk which extends your work at home space. All three bedrooms have their own bathroom. Everyone is happy! Two of the bedrooms overlook the view – imagine waking up to beautiful sunrises every morning. The largest is extra spacious, has a huge walk-in closet and a grand en suite bathroom with dual vanities, a giant soaking tub and separate shower. The front bedroom also has an en suite bathroom offering extra privacy. Completing the home is designer paint, plantation shutters, crown molding, new lighting throughout most of the house and a three car garage.
