Make the most of coastal living with beautiful ocean views and exceptional walkability to vibrant downtown Encinitas. Set in sought-after Encinitas Highlands, this three-bedroom, two-bath home with a garage strikes an ideal balance—just enough distance from the downtown activity to unwind, with all its conveniences only a two-minute walk away. An inviting patio along the front and side of the home makes room for leisurely mornings and relaxed gatherings, while beautiful backyard ocean views provide a backdrop for dinner outdoors or an afternoon in the coastal breeze. Ocean views are exceptionally rare in the Highlands, particularly when coupled with such immediate access to downtown. Enjoy the home as it is, explore an addition, or investigate the potential for an ADU, JADU, or both. Available individually or together with the neighboring property at 67 E E St, this offering presents a rare opportunity to consider a broader vision for a dream home or coastal compound. It is an invitation to invest in the next chapter of Encinitas’ remarkable growth story—a coastal community whose outdoor culture, natural beauty, and emphasis on well-being make it an exceptional setting for a healthy, active lifestyle. Neighborhood bakeries, coffee shops, boutiques, and restaurants are a short stroll away, along with award willing Encinitas Library and dog-friendly Viewpoint Park. Pedal to Moonlight Beach or explore the celebrated “Miracle Mile” of surf breaks, stretching from Swami’s to Cardiff Reef. From a spontaneous dinner downtown to a quick surf before work, this home makes the experiences people come to Encinitas for part of everyday life.
