About This Home

Showings begin Thursday Aug 20th. Perched on a quiet hillside in central Escondido, this fully remodeled home delivers the rare combination of move-in-ready polish and everyday functionality. Step inside to an open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area designed for effortless flow, all framed by sweeping 180-degree north-northwest views stretching across the city skyline and surrounding mountains. The main level offers true single-story living with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, including a primary suite that wakes up to the same postcard views found throughout the home. No stairs, no compromises, just direct garage access and one-level ease for daily life. Downstairs is where this property truly sets itself apart: a fully self-contained ADU with its own private entrance, complete kitchen, full bathroom, bedroom, and a spacious second living area, ideal for rental income, multigenerational living, extended guests, or a private home office setup. Outdoor living is just as impressive, with a covered deck and a dedicated view deck, perfect for relaxing or entertaining against a backdrop of twinkling city lights at night. This home is truly turnkey, with a brand-new roof (June 2025), a freshly rebuilt deck (July 2025), and a comprehensive interior remodel throughout (July 2026) that includes an all-new 3-zone air conditioning system with new ducting, a brand-new kitchen with new appliances, fully remodeled bathrooms, fresh interior and exterior paint, and a recently jetted sewer line. There's also a huge storage space underneath the home, offering the potential for additional square footage to be added in the future. All just blocks from Grand Avenue's restaurants, breweries, cafes, and entertainment in the heart of downtown Escondido.
