With partial ocean views, two balconies and thoughtful touches throughout, this two-story beach house is perfect for families and quiet groups looking to recharge. Walk to the beach, explore local attractions, and return to a calm, stylish space to relax and reconnect. The Space: This open-concept two-bedroom, two-bath home is designed with serenity in mind. Clean lines, natural textures, and curated décor set the tone for a truly relaxing stay. The living area offers plush seating, a 50" TV, and a cozy gas fireplace. A twin sofa bed adds flexible sleeping arrangements. The modern kitchen is fully equipped with high-end appliances and everything needed to prepare meals or snacks after a day at the beach. Dine together indoors or step outside to enjoy meals on either of the two furnished balconies—one with a private gas grill and partial ocean views, the other ideal for morning coffee. Extras include fast WiFi, beach towels, board games, and streaming-ready TVs for relaxed evenings in. Guest Access: Guests have full access to the second-floor unit, including both private balconies, shared laundry, one free parking space, and secure keyless entry. The Neighborhood: Located in one of North County’s most walkable beach communities, this home is just a block from the ocean and close to Carlsbad’s best family-friendly attractions. Walk to the beach in minutes, explore charming local shops and restaurants, or take a short drive to major destinations like Legoland, the San Diego Botanic Garden, and The Flower Fields. Some local favorites include Campfire for open-flame dining, Harbor Fish Café for beachfront seafood, and Pizza Port for a casual bite with the whole family. Parks, trails, and oceanfront activities are all within reach. Getting Around: Walk to the beach and downtown Carlsbad Village with ease. The property includes one free parking spot and has convenient access to public transit, including nearby bus stops and Carlsbad Poinsettia Train Station.
