Set on approximately half an acre in the elevated hills of Vista, this distinctive Mediterranean-style home combines spacious living, character, panoramic views and exceptional versatility. Offering approximately 2,350 square feet, the home features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, two separate living areas, multiple dining spaces, an oversized attached 2-car garage and an additional bonus storage room. A welcoming entry opens to warm architectural details throughout, including natural wood doors and trim, rich wood-style flooring, Mexican paver tile, decorative wrought-iron railings, barn-style doors and recessed lighting. The main level offers both a spacious living room and a separate family room with fireplace, along with formal and casual dining areas. The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, abundant freshly refreshed cabinetry and a garden window overlooking the surrounding landscape. Upstairs, the generous primary suite includes a large built-out walk-in closet and private bath with dual sinks, separate tub and shower. Two additional bedrooms complete the upper level, including direct access to the expansive approximately 21' x 21' deck—an ideal spot to take in the surrounding hills, ocean views, distant western vistas and colorful sunsets. Additional ocean views can also be enjoyed from portions of the yard. Outside, the 0.54-acre property offers mature palms and landscaping, a usable rear lawn, generous driveway and parking areas, and space for recreational vehicles. Additional features include an approximately 30-panel solar system, dual-zone air conditioning, built-in speakers and no HOA reported. The recently replaced septic system was sized with capacity beyond the home’s current 3-bedroom configuration, providing flexibility for a future fourth bedroom or additional living space such as an ADU over the garage. Recently refreshed for sale with extensive interior and exterior painting, updated cabinet finishes, deck work, repairs and professional cleaning, the home is ready to enjoy while retaining the warmth and personality that set it apart from more conventional homes.
