Perched atop a scenic hill in the heart of Vista, this custom-built 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath, nearly 3,000 sq ft luxury residence offers breathtaking panoramic views, serene surroundings, multiple view decks on a spacious lot, and an unbeatable location close to shops, dining, and nearby beaches—with no HOA and no Mello-Roos! Recently elevated with brand-new luxury laminate flooring, new custom wooden kitchen cabinetry with quartz countertops and designer tile backsplash, fully remodeled bathrooms featuring an expansive walk-in shower and soaking tub in the primary suite, and fresh paint throughout, this home delivers high-end living at every turn. A grand formal entry opens to an airy, open-concept floorplan seamlessly connecting the living room, formal dining room, kitchen, and family room, all bathed in natural light and framed by dramatic vaulted ceilings and sweeping views. The wraparound decks create an ideal setting for entertaining, sunset watching, or simply relaxing in total privacy. Upstairs, a striking full-length staircase window highlights the home’s architectural elegance while drawing in light and nature. The primary suite is a true retreat with stunning views, a private balcony, spacious walk-in closet, and spa-inspired bath, while two generously sized secondary bedrooms and a full hallway bath provide comfort and flexibility. Completing the home is a large laundry room with sink and abundant storage, direct access to the attached three-car garage, newer water heater, and low-maintenance drip-system landscaping. This is refined hilltop living—impressive, inviting, and absolutely unforgettable.
