A lush tree-lined drive leads to this private hilltop 5 bedroom retreat with serene mountain and valley views. Set within the prestigious Rancho Santa Fe Covenant and the district boundaries of the renowned Roger Rowe elementary and middle school, this home is one of the rare properties that also lies within the gated community of South Pointe Farms. Soaring ceilings, large picture windows, and multiple French doors combine with the fresh, bright palette to create a harmonious, light-filled ambiance. The primary bedroom suite is on the main floor featuring a stylish, modern bathroom with steam shower and soaking tub, wood-burning fireplace, two walk-in closets, and a lounge area or office nook overlooking the lovely grounds. Upstairs are 3 additional bedrooms, 2 full baths, and a media room with adjoining hobby or wrapping room. The epicurean kitchen opens to a spacious breakfast area and family room with doors leading to a relaxing outdoor patio area and underground wine cellar a few steps down. The 2.99 usable, manicured acres includes expansive green lawns, a lap pool, room for pickleball or sports court, and a detached 1BR/1BA guest house with kitchenette. Never worry about power outages with a backup generator included that powers the entire home. Located close to Encinitas, there is easy access to shops and restaurants, and Moonlight Beach is less than 6 miles away!
