Welcome to this 4S Ranch Craftsman inspired home on a quiet cul-de-sac. Located in the Poway School District this home is walking distance to Stone Ranch Elementary and a close walk to Oak Valley Middle School, Design 39, and Del Norte High School. Lattice-topped stone walls, curving front walkway, dry creek bed, drought-tolerant flowering plants, and a sizeable front sitting porch embellish the front of this comfortable retreat. This mature, low-water front yard evokes a cool, refreshing feeling while naturally offering a degree of privacy. The west-facing backyard is adjacent to a small side canyon and a trail leading to the 4S Community Sports P. With no one behind, the property’s layered mature trees and bushes afford the full range of privacy options as desired for outdoor dining, entertaining, playing, or just suburban nature-bathing. Cooling sea breezes from Del Mar, and bountiful shade from trees and patio covers all add to the desirability of this property. The ground floor offers a unique, flowing, circular layout connecting all the main rooms. The kitchen features a generous eat-in area and sink on a sunny western window. The larger laundry gives ample storage and counter spaces. Cozy gas log fireplaces grace the family and formal living rooms. Upstairs is a loft connecting all 4 bedrooms and a large office/optional 5th bedroom. The large, primary bedroom suite has an expansive balcony from which to enjoy panoramic views and colorful sunsets. Shutters throughout the home buffer light, heat and sound, adding to the overall serenity.
