    A short stroll to Cardiff’s world-class beaches and famous surf spot Swami’s, this exquisite home offers the perfect balance of coastal convenience, bespoke luxury design, and serene retreat living. Nestled between Encinitas Community Park—featuring a dog park, playground, and athletic fields—and the ocean, both just five minutes away in either direction, this location is truly unbeatable. Tucked away at the end of a long, private driveway in the heart of Cardiff's prestigious Composer District, this single-level masterpiece at 1535 Rubenstein Ave has undergone a comprehensive transformation, both inside and out. Meticulously redesigned over three years by a Swiss-trained designer in collaboration with a highly skilled Rancho Santa Fe finish carpenter, every inch of this residence has been thoughtfully customized to perfection with every facet exuding unparalleled quality and sophisticated design. The interior glows with custom LED lighting—each shelf, under-cabinet, and doorway is elegantly illuminated casting a warm, inviting glow that enhances the ambiance and the truly elevated living experience. The turn-key home boasts an open-concept Gourmet Chef’s Kitchen, a culinary masterpiece equipped with top-tier appliances, custom cabinetry, and exquisite countertops. Fully integrated lighting adds a seamless blend of function and beauty. The expansive primary suite is a true sanctuary, featuring a spa-inspired en-suite bathroom, a generous walk-in closet, and elegant finishes that exude sophistication and tranquility. Designed for ultimate privacy, every room offers a peaceful retreat, perfectly insulated from the outside world. Set on a 9,718 sq. ft. lot, the entire property has been completely reimagined, featuring custom hardscaping, lush landscaping, designer lighting, and high-end fencing. The fully fenced property is wired for a private gate, allowing for an enclosed compound-style living experience. The upstairs ocean-view deck is more than just an outdoor space—it features a beautifully designed living and dining area, seamlessly extending the exquisite interior to the outdoors. This breathtaking space creates a harmonious flow for both relaxation and entertaining, offering the perfect setting to enjoy Cardiff’s coastal beauty. The backyard exudes a sophisticated European flair, thoughtfully designed with meandering garden pathways, lush greenery, intimate dining nooks, and meditation spaces—creating a charming, secluded retreat perfect for alfresco dining and unwinding amidst nature’s beauty. Located just two blocks from the highly acclaimed Cardiff Elementary School, shopping and dining, this home is ideal for those seeking both luxury and convenience. For buyers seeking a truly turn-key opportunity, all furniture and furnishings are available for purchase, making it effortless to step into this extraordinary lifestyle. This masterpiece of design, privacy, and luxury offers a rare opportunity to own a bespoke, move-in-ready sanctuary in one of Cardiff’s most sought-after locations.
