1719 Willowhaven Rd

Set on a quiet double cul-de-sac in the desirable Willowcreek community, this beautifully updated Encinitas home offers timeless design, rare privacy, and a sun-drenched backyard retreat. Backing to open space with no neighbors behind, the south-facing yard is peaceful and private—while the fully remodeled interior delivers comfort, style, and modern ease. A highly sought-after preschool is just around the corner, and a beautiful park sits at the end of the cul-de-sac—making this location as convenient as it is charming. All just minutes from award-winning schools, iconic beaches, and the best of North County living. A custom front door opens to a freshly painted interior, where upgraded windows fill the space with natural light and draw attention to newly refinished hardwood floors, detailed crown molding, and baseboards that bring warmth and cohesion throughout. To the right, formal living and dining spaces with tall ceilings and plantation shutters feel inviting and open. Just beyond, the fully remodeled kitchen anchors the home with granite counters, GE Monogram appliances including a double oven, a Bosch dishwasher, wine fridge, and custom cabinetry with a mix of solid and glass-front doors. Swarovski pendant lighting adds a soft, elevated touch above the breakfast bar, while a cozy nook offers space for casual meals. The kitchen opens directly to a welcoming family room with a custom gas fireplace and beautiful custom mantel, and sliding glass doors that create seamless indoor-outdoor flow. The brand new laundry room includes a sink, cabinetry, updated flooring, and fresh paint. Upstairs, the primary suite feels calm and spacious, with hardwood floors, soft natural light, and a spa-inspired bath that has been completely reimagined. Enjoy a deep soaking tub beneath a large window, dual vanities with sculptural vessel sinks, stone tile floors, elegant pendant lights, and a walk-in shower framed by a custom glass enclosure. Down the hall, three secondary bedrooms—each with updated lighting and plush carpet—share a full bath, remodeled with dual sinks, new tile, vanity, mirrors, and updated shower fixtures. The staircase and railings have been custom redone, and recessed lighting has been added in the family room, kitchen, all upstairs bedrooms, the stairwell, and upper hallway. Additional upgrades include refreshed powder and secondary baths, all new interior doors, a whole-house copper repipe, a tankless water heater, new roof installed in 2024, new garage doors, fully replaced windows, and an updated electrical panel. The backyard is designed for both beauty and ease, with upgraded fencing, custom hardscape, and lush landscaping—including two delicious, producing fig trees. A private spa makes the most of the home’s south-facing orientation, while a freestanding covered cabana—known as the “Queen’s Room”—offers a comfortable outdoor retreat for lounging or gathering with friends under the shade. With curtains for privacy and space for full seating, it’s an ideal extension of the home’s al fresco lifestyle. Neighborhood trails connect directly to Scott Valley Park with sand volleyball courts, basketball, a playground, and open green space. Located within the top-rated Encinitas Union and San Dieguito Union High School Districts and just minutes from El Camino Real shopping, the Forum, downtown Encinitas, and the I-5—this home offers a lifestyle that’s private, connected, and effortlessly livable.
