- Prime Gated Location
Situated in the exclusive gated Stone Canyon community, the home offers enhanced security and is located within the boundaries of top-rated San Marcos Unified schools, including Discovery Elementary and San Elijo Middle.
- Premium Outdoor Living
The backyard is a private oasis featuring a six-person spa, pergola, coated patio, and mature fruit trees, perfectly positioned to capture sunset and peek-a-boo ocean views.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Obstructed Views
The ocean view is described as 'peek-a-boo,' which may be a drawback for buyers specifically seeking expansive or unobstructed coastal panoramas.
