This elegant home is nestled on a prime corner location in the poet’s section of the Mira Costa neighborhood. Immaculate from the moment you walk past the grassy front yard with lush landscaping, up the steps and into the cozy living room, this home checks all the right boxes. The brick fireplace is a nice focal point while beamed ceilings above and rich hardwood floors underfoot give a substantial feel. The open floor plan allows for a seamless transition to the formal dining space, and into the crisp, updated kitchen. Quartz counter tops run the length of the kitchen, classic subway tiles line the backsplash and modern, new cabinetry offers plenty of smart storage space. Stainless 6 burner Thermador range with coordinating hood, an additional oven, plus built-in microwave offers convenience and luxury to the home cook. Saddle up to the intimate and casual breakfast bar for a direct view of the kitchen activity. Go through large sliding doors direct from the living and dining areas to the roomy backyard. A grassy area under a shady tree offers room for play while a flat area is perfect for an outdoor dining table. The covered back porch is a perfect vantage point to overlook this private sanctuary. All bedrooms have the same warm wood floors and are bathed in plenty of natural light. Two of these bedrooms share an updated bathroom with stone countertops, dual under mount sinks, sleek plumbing fixtures, wainscoting detail and a deep tub. A 2-car garage, air conditioning, recessed lighting, luxury light fixtures and finishes make this home a jewel box by the ocean. The superb location combines the convenience of freeway access, close proximity to trendy shops and restaurants and easy access to the beach.
