Steps from the sand and designed by award-winning architect Joe Cristilli, this Carlsbad coastal home blends architectural sophistication with modern ease. Located just one block from the beach and moments from the vibrant shops and dining of Carlsbad Village, it offers an exceptional mix of privacy, luxury, and walkable convenience. Newly renovated with luxury LVP flooring, Milgard windows, custom blinds from The Shade Store, and an in-home washer/dryer, the home feels fresh, stylish, and turnkey. Soaring 20-foot ceilings anchor the open-concept great room, while the adjacent family room features soft ocean views and a built-in Bose sound system. The private primary retreat spans its own level and captures breathtaking white water ocean views from bed. A secluded patio, spa-inspired bath with soaking tub, frameless shower, dual vanity, and custom walk-in closet complete the suite. Two additional bedrooms—one with its own en-suite—plus a flexible den offer versatile living. With a 3-car garage, RV parking, and a private second-story deck, this home is ideal for those seeking a low-maintenance, lock & leave lifestyle. No HOA. This is Carlsbad beachside living at its finest—with rare ocean views and thoughtful design just steps from the coast.null
