Property Description
Impeccable in condition, 1690 Gascony Rd presents a rare opportunity to own a home with STUNNING ocean views in one of Encinitas’ most sought-after neighborhoods. Perched above the coast in the heart of Leucadia, this street is known for premium views and this lot is designated as a historical spot – World War II-era civilian coastal observation post (Grok it!)! An elegant yet grounding home – designed with intention, light, and a quiet sense of calm. Lives like a 1-story: Front door, garage, primary bed/bath, laundry, kitchen and living area all on main floor. Expansive windows frame ocean views from almost every room in the home – which consists of 4 bedrooms/4.5 baths, a dedicated office, a theater/bonus room AND detached guest room… all thoughtfully designed and constructed with high-end materials and has been meticulously maintained by its original owner. Solar is paid for and generates a positive credit. Seller has not had an electricity bill since 2011. The detached bonus/guest room is just next door to the charming greenhouse and offers versatility for a studio, office, or wellness space – nestled within a garden and 11 varieties of fruit trees. Minutes from world-class beaches, boutiques, acclaimed restaurants, and top-rated schools, all while feeling elevated and tucked away. Some photos digitally enhanced to show it without the furniture including the DR which shows different paint color and chandelier as well.
