Property is move-in ready.
Built in 2002 (22 years old), the property is exceptionally well-maintained and move-in ready. The main kitchen features updated stone countertops and stainless steel appliances, likely renovated within the last 5-10 years. While some areas like the bathrooms and laundry room retain original 2002 tile work, the addition of a clean, functional ADU and the overall mint condition of the systems and surfaces justify a 'Good' rating despite the age.
High School: Sage Creek High School (9/10).
The property features a rare, fully equipped 1-bedroom separate ADU with a private entrance and full kitchen, offering exceptional versatility for multigenerational living or a potential rental income of approximately $3,000 per month.
Located within the prestigious Carlsbad Unified School District and just over a mile from the top-rated Sage Creek High School, this home is ideally positioned for families prioritizing high-quality education.
At approximately 5,227 square feet, the lot is relatively small for the price point, which may limit private backyard space and outdoor expansion possibilities compared to other single-family residences.
The $230 monthly association fee and gated community regulations add to the fixed cost of ownership and may impose restrictions on property modifications or lifestyle flexibility.
