Leucadia Meets Maui!

Property Description

Breathtaking, rarely available, single story home on .29 acres is located west of I-5 on one of the most coveted streets in Encinitas. A short walk/bike away from Beacons and Ponto beaches, restaurants and shopping along hwy 101, the famous Leucadia Farmer’s Market and The Pannikin Coffee and Tea. Lush, tropical mature landscaping provides ultimate privacy in a setting that makes you feel like you are at a Hawaiian resort. The property has a unique variety of mature palms with some reaching over 40 ft. tall, colorful shrubs and flora, mature fruit trees, in-ground hot tub with new mechanicals, meditation gazebo, organic vegetable garden, and large grassy areas in front and back. The cost to replicate this landscaping today would be hundreds of thousands of dollars and virtually impossible to do.

• Custom teak garage door and gate leading you into the expansive front courtyard
• Custom mahogany Dutch front door
• 7 sets of Pella French doors create open flow between the inside and out

Tiki torches line the paved walkway that winds you through the lush and expansive back yard. Here you can pick an abundance of your own fruit: avocados, oranges, tangerines, lemons, limes, loquat, pomegranate and guava or let the kids set up a fruit stand at the end of the driveway. The meditation gazebo is covered in Concord grape vines and provides a peaceful and private nook covered in Morning Glory vine and featuring an ethanol fireplace. There is so much more to this tropical oasis, a true one of a kind and must see!
