Rarely does an opportunity like this come along. First time on the market. Same family has enjoyed this cherished location for decades. Perched on Neptune Avenue — the most coveted street in Encinitas — this sprawling oceanfront property delivers unobstructed, sweeping views of the Pacific and a blank canvas to create the coastal dream home you've always envisioned. At 3,570 square feet with 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, the home is configured as a main residence (approx. 2730 sq ft | 4 bed/2 bath) plus a 2-bed/1 bath ADU (approx. 850 sq ft). Each unit has a 2 car garage, offering incredible flexibility for multigenerational living, rental income, or the opportunity to combine it all into one grand single-family oceanfront residence. The possibilities are truly yours to define. The main residence's second floor is made for entertaining — an open kitchen and family room open directly to a generous deck where sunset becomes a nightly ritual. Imagine afternoons soaking in the Pacific sun, the sound of waves below, and uninterrupted ocean views stretching as far as the eye can see. The updated ADU with Luxury Vinyl plank flooring, newer windows and cabinets along with quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances impresses with its very own panoramic Pacific views from the kitchen and family room. Additionally it has a deck off the family room and bedroom that delivers even more breathtaking oceanfront scenery. Steps to Grandview Beach and just minutes from the eclectic restaurants and cafes lining Coast Highway in Leucadia, the location is as good as it gets in North County San Diego. Bring your vision. This is your chance to craft an extraordinary oceanfront legacy on one of Southern California's most sought-after streets.
