Built in 2017 and located just 2 blocks from Carlsbad State Beach and Lifeguard Tower 27, this 3,436 sq. ft. coastal home offers an exceptional opportunity to buy now and choose your own finishes before the renovation is completed. Located on a cul-de-sac of only 18 homes with no neighbors directly behind, the home features a 2-car garage, 3 balconies, outdoor shower, firepit, and a built-in outdoor island BBQ—perfect for the Southern California beach lifestyle. Poinsettia Coaster Station is approximately a 10-minute walk away, providing convenient coastal rail access. A MAJOR FINANCING OPPORTUNITY: Seller has an existing approximately $970,000 VA loan at 2.5% that may be assumable by a qualified buyer, subject to lender/VA approval and applicable requirements. With today's interest rates, the potential payment savings could be substantial (thousands a month.. speak to lender for details). The property experienced a water intrusion/flood event and has already undergone professional remediation. Potentially moisture-damaged flooring and wall materials were removed, testing and tear-out have been completed, and seller reports no additional mitigation is currently required. The interior is now ready for reconstruction and finishing. Offered AS-IS at $2,300,000, creating an opportunity for a buyer, investor, or contractor to complete the home to their own taste rather than paying for someone else's finishes. Seller currently plans to renovate the property if it does not sell in its present condition, with an anticipated future offering around $2.8 million. Contractor's current estimate is approximately 3 months to complete the renovation. Buy now, select your finishes, and create your own coastal Carlsbad home just steps from the beach.

Every so often, a home comes along that feels less like a listing and more like a well kept secret. This is that home. It begins in The Preserve Carlsbad, a 156-acre master-planned enclave where more than half the land will never be built upon, a natural greenbelt of protected hills laced with trails, so your borders are not fences but open country made for morning hikes and evening wanderings. On the community's quiet outer edge lies its most storied street: the one with the largest homes, the only detached homes, no shared walls among them. And of those few, this 2019-built Contemporary Craftsman is the one the neighbors quietly covet, the most desirable address in all of The Preserve and arguably the finest find in the Carlsbad market today. The enchantment starts before the door opens. Hand-hewn mahogany beams and pergolas frame the entry like a gateway to somewhere secret, and a custom handcrafted walnut door, more sculpture than hardware, ultimately swings into a hidden garden sanctuary where fountains murmur, twinkle lit driftwood climbs toward the trees, and hummingbirds and butterflies keep the daily calendar. Inside, everything sparkles like opening day. The chef's kitchen anchors the main level with granite counters, gas cooking, a Sub Zero refrigerator, double ovens, a bottle cooler, and full-height floor-to-ceiling soft-close cabinetry filled with custom pull-out storage, all beneath designer pendant lights. Living spaces flow through walls of glass dressed in custom fabric window panels and shutters throughout to covered outdoor rooms. Off the main level, a custom basswood-paneled office glows like the captain's quarters of a fine wooden ship. Up one flight, three spacious bedrooms gather around a comfortable library like landing made for reading and slow Sundays, beside a true laundry room with a washer and dryer, sink cabinet, and cabinetry above and below. The primary suite is its own retreat: walk-in closet, a large soaking tub, and a recently upgraded walk-in glass-enclosed shower. And the story continues and gets even better. The entire third level is an enormous family room, or an optional fourth bedroom with its own full bath, so large it hosts game tables, movie marathons, and sleepovers without breaking stride, complete with its own bottle cooler, a countertop made for homework, and ample cabinetry. Beyond it waits the grand finale: a private Ipe wood rooftop terrace wrapped in irrigated planters grown for total privacy, where a gas fire table flickers as city lights shimmer, hills roll into silhouette, and ocean breezes arrive each evening on schedule, now shaded at a touch by a new 13-foot retractable sun shade. No home in the community has been given more and some recently added touches: fresh paint inside and out, new Bosch dishwasher, LiftMaster whisper-quiet garage opener, 220V EV outlet in the garage, and designer ceiling fans in every room. Solar is pre-paid in full, the smart-home devices and control panel convey, and whole-house water filtration and a tankless water heater carry on quietly behind the scenes. Add a low HOA with community park, pool, and gym, shopping minutes away, trails through the preserve, excellent schools, and Carlsbad's beaches down the hill, and the math becomes the easiest part of the story. Some homes shelter you. A rare few inspire you. This one has spent its whole life doing both, and its next chapter is waiting for your name.
