About this home
712 Lupine Drive sits on a large, quiet corner lot in desirable Discovery Hills. Soaring ceilings greet you in the living room, with a private home office and dining/kitchen area overlooking the backyard and fruit-tree-lined side yard. Upstairs, two secondary bedrooms share a bath, while the primary suite features a sitting room, private balcony, curbless shower, soaking tub, and walk-in closet. The backyard offers a gazebo, turf lawn, and shade tree for easy outdoor living. Major upgrades: new roof (2023), 9.25kW owned solar grandfathered into NEM 2.0 — producing surplus power with room for EV charging — new tankless water heater (2023), new waterproof balcony (2024) and new AC (2022). No HOA, no Mello-Roos.
Barham Discovery Community, located between Discovery Street and Barham Drive, is a residential and campus-adjacent San Marcos neighborhood with hillside streetscapes and pocket parks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Discovery Street and Barham Drive junction, where school drop-offs, walkers, and cyclists set a steady daytime rhythm. Housing reads as late-20th-century Southern California—stucco exteriors, tile roofs, and cul-de-sacs that follow the terrain. Nearby, California State University San Marcos adds a collegiate pulse and cultural calendar. Trails and open-space edges shape an outdoors-forward routine, while local coffee and casual dining cluster along nearby San Marcos Boulevard.
