With riveting ocean views on display in most of the rooms and a beautifully renovated interior, this airy Craftsman-style home is a rare find on the Southern California coast. Located a short drive away from local surf breaks and schools, plus a strong lineup of shops, restaurants and nightlife, the residence includes an oversized lot with approximately 10,000 square feet and a convenient main-floor bedroom. Skyline Road is one of Carlsbad’s most sought-after streets, with arguably some of the best ocean views North County has to offer. Rich wood floors complement the shifting blues of the ocean and sky, which are visible in the expansive open kitchen and dining room. The kitchen is where the renovation really shines, with granite counters, furniture-grade cabinets, two sinks and high-end appliances, including a Wolf gas range, dual ovens, and a Kitchen Aid built-in refrigerator. A center island with counter seating, an adjacent formal dining room and a casual dining nook with a built-in window seat make the space ideal for sunset viewing parties. The family room carries the same warmth, anchored by a substantial fireplace that is flanked by custom shelving. The upstairs primary suite elevates the entire home, with entrancing ocean views and a private balcony. Vaulted ceilings, French doors and oversized windows invite abundant natural light and ocean breezes inside; the spa-inspired bathroom is appointed with premium finishes that are worthy of the setting. Three generous secondary bedrooms round out approximately 2,606 square feet of thoughtfully planned living space. This is enhanced by large outdoor living areas with hedges and landscaping that create a sense of privacy from the street. The name of the road on which the home is located, Skyline, speaks for itself. Additional highlights include custom moldings, recessed lighting and an oversized three car garage with 10’ doors. Grab dinner at Pizza Port or Bluewater Grill, spend an afternoon at one of the nearby beaches, or hop on the 78 or the 5 to access everything San Diego has to offer. Or simply stay home, settle into the designer-quality interior and watch the clouds drift across the ocean—no one will blame you.
