Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Perched above the Pacific in Encinitas, this blufftop home makes the most of its front-row position. Ocean views stretch across all three levels, whether you’re cooking in the kitchen, waking up in bed, or settling in around the fire pit. There are multiple terraces to choose from too, so following the sun throughout the day becomes part of the routine pretty quickly. The home works well for groups, thanks to the separate guest suite and generous living spaces, though we wouldn’t blame you if most of your time ended up being spent outside listening to the waves below. And while the setting feels peaceful, Beacon’s Beach and downtown Encinitas are both only minutes away.
