Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 2001, the property is 23 years old and appears to retain its original kitchen and bathroom finishes. While the home is exceptionally well-maintained, clean, and move-in ready, the age of the structure and the early-2000s aesthetic (raised-panel wood cabinets and granite) fall into the 'Fair' category (>20 years old) as it is reaching the age where minor repairs and modern updates are expected.
Elementary School: R. Roger Rowe Elementary School (10/10). Middle School: Pacific Trails Middle (10/10).
Situated in the highly desirable San Elijo Hills, the property offers exceptional walkability to the Town Square, local restaurants, and extensive trail systems, fostering a high-quality lifestyle.
The home is located within the prestigious San Marcos Unified School District, with San Elijo Elementary and Middle schools both rated 8/10 and located less than a mile away.
With a lot size of 4,443 square feet, the outdoor space is relatively limited compared to other single-family residences in this price bracket, which may restrict large-scale landscaping or play areas.
The property has undergone a price reduction after nearly 30 days on the market, indicating that the initial pricing may have been slightly ahead of current buyer expectations for the area.
