About this home
Rare single-level home on a corner lot of just under a quarter acre in Rancho Carrillo. Offering 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and approximately 2,200 square feet, this home pairs remodeled bathrooms, kitchen and a comfortable open layout with a 3-car garage and a private backyard built for outdoor living. Formal living and dining rooms showcase plantation shutters, crown molding, and recessed lighting throughout. The kitchen features white cabinetry, granite countertops, a center island, double ovens, and a gas cooktop, and opens to a breakfast nook and family room with a fireplace. One bedroom is currently set up as an office. A Crestron home automation system controls lighting and audio. The primary suite offers a walk-in closet and a remodeled bath with a frameless glass shower, soaking tub, and quartz dual vanity. The hall bath has also been remodeled with a tiled walk-in shower and dual sinks, and a remodeled powder room serves guests. The inside laundry room includes a utility sink and direct garage access. Stamped concrete patios wrap the back of the home and lead to a lighted pergola, surrounded by lawn, flowering landscaping, fruit trees, and side yards on both sides. A smart irrigation system keeps maintenance easy. Built in 2000, with fully paid, owned solar. Residents enjoy the Rancho Carrillo Swim Center with heated pool, spa, and clubhouse, miles of walking trails including the Rancho Carrillo Loop Trail, and the historic Leo Carrillo Ranch. The home sits just above Carrillo Elementary in the acclaimed San Marcos Unified School District, minutes from Bressi Ranch shopping and dining and the beach.
Rancho Carrillo, located between Rancho Santa Fe Road and El Camino Real, is a master-planned and hillside Carlsbad neighborhood with a network of trails and a central community park. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Rancho Carrillo Trail and Camino Junipero, where landscaped paseos, pocket parks, and the community clubhouse set a calm, outdoors-forward rhythm. Architecture leans toward late-1990s and 2000s Spanish- and Mediterranean-influenced homes with tiled roofs, courtyards, and tidy streetscapes. Leo Carrillo Ranch Historic Park adds a distinct sense of place with adobe-era grounds and peacocks. Bressi Ranch Village Center brings local coffee-and-bistro energy nearby, while Alga Norte Community Park anchors recreation with fields and an aquatic center. La Costa Canyon Park and the surrounding open space keep the horizon green and walkable.
