About this property

Distinctive Del Mar Haven

This fabulous twin-home is located close to the beach in the heart of north coastal San Diego.
Our three-bedroom/2.5-bath home is situated in a distinctive private, gated community that features a private courtyard entry with custom wrought iron gates, and a beautifully landscaped front entry and common area.

You'll enter through a private gate to a dramatic cathedral ceiling leading into the living room. A light and elegant formal dining area catches the eye. Special features include nine-foot-high ceilings, spacious open floor plan, and multi-paned windows bringing in lots of light. Ceiling fans are throughout the home.

Relax in the family room by the cozy fireplace. Catch your favorite sports or movies on the 42' HD flat screen TV, with Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu, Paramount plus and more. Beautiful and comfortable furnishings add to the ambiance.

Interior and Patio Description: The den is open to the gourmet kitchen, for family and friends to gather.
Outside the glass door there is a lush and spacious landscaped patio -- complete with a Weber grill, custom built table, and benches, beautiful swing and loveseat. Share hors-d'oeuvres, and a beverage as you enjoy the incredible weather this San Diego location offers.

The sunny remodeled kitchen has big-view windows overlooking this flower-filled patio. It offers a breakfast nook, with a unique table that opens to seat 6-8, all are provided to make your stay warm and welcome! There is a powder room on the 1st floor.

On the second floor, you'll find the large master bedroom suite with its spacious vaulted ceiling, flat screen TV, and exercise bike. In the comfortable bathroom, double sinks, full tub, separate shower, and private toilet. The second and third bedrooms each feature full-size beds. The upstairs 2nd bath features double sinks, a private toilet, and tub with shower. All upstairs bathrooms have windows for natural lighting.

Enjoy a swim in the large beautifully landscaped pool area, or enjoy a soak in the jacuzzi spa. The recreation area comes complete with a cabana with umbrella-covered tables, a shower, and restrooms for your convenience.

A large grassy area invites a place for children to run, have a catch or play.

World Class Golf and lots to do! It's less than a 10 minute drive to the beach. And it's just 10 minutes to both the Del Mar Race Track and the famous Torrey Pines Golf Course. Several other golf courses are within an easy drive.

It's just 20 minutes to Sea World, downtown San Diego, the San Diego Zoo, Seaport Village, and Legoland -- and an easy drive to the San Diego Zoo Safari Park. Disneyland and California Adventures is just 1.5 hours away.
.
Carmel Valley, Del Mar, is the best that San Diego has to offer. Many famous people have homes or vacation in Del Mar. Who knows who you might run into!

It's just a short walk to playgrounds with tot equipment, basketball nets, and walking trails. Boogie boards, beach, wheelchair rentals, and a snack bar are beach convenient. Visit Powerhouse Park in Del Mar for gorgeous ocean views from the comfort of the grassy picnic/barbecue area or beach below.

Torrey Pines Reserve is breath-taking for hikes overlooking the ocean.

A beautiful new shopping center with Trader Joes, restaurants, boutiques and Crunch Fitness Center recently opened just 3 minutes away!

5 minutes away is the Highlands Shopping Center with 2 stories of stores, sweet shops, restaurants, a unique fountain for the young or young at heart to play in, Cinepolis Luxury Cinema with reclining seats and wait service at your seat! A brand new dining experience called Skydeck opened in the Highlands Shopping Center as well. A must see!

More to See and Do! Because we are little east of the ocean, we have the added luxury of waking to sunshine when the coastal fog may take a few hours to burn off from about mid May to mid July. Take a swim in the pool or relax in the jacuzzi before heading to the coast, or play tennis, go horseback riding, go for run or ride at the bike trails that are all close by. Your preferred church or synagogue are all convenient.

Quaint Del Mar is a haven for strollers who enjoy window shopping, dining outdoors on the patio, and exploring Del Mar Plaza with its three-level shops and restaurants overlooking the magnificent ocean. This is a favorite village, with a village feel. Along with all of the shops and restaurants, manicures and pedicure salons are conveniently located.
Renowned L'Auberge Del Mar Hotel is a beautiful place to have a sunset cocktail and people watch.

North Coast San Diego is full of places to run, bike, hike, take a yoga class, and take advantage of a luxurious spa day! Enjoy the Del Mar or Solana Beach Farmer's Market on weekends. Cedro Design District is a favorite place for antique shopping and shopping for unique gifts. You will find Alexis K. Brows, THE place for facials, brow shaping and more should you desire beauty services.
All in all Del Mar Haven is the perfect spot for your vacation!

About the host

Host profile image
We purchased this townhome with the excellent schools in mind, and proximity to Del Mar and Torrey Pines beaches. The area has grown up around us to include many excellent restaurants, Trader Joes, Whole Foods, gyms, boutiques, parks etc. We love the convenience to freeways going north and south. The airport is 30 minutes away as is the Aquarium at Legoland, and in La Jolla at Birch Aquarium. The Polo Fields, 10 minutes away for the soccer enthusiasts. The Oceanside Pier and the Museum of Music, are favorite spots. As a parent educator, I am always looking for special places to recommend to take children for hikes and experiences that expose them the to the gorgeous environment that is San Diego.

Why they chose this property

This property is our primary home. Many of the pieces are designed and built as one a of kind pieces. The home is decorated with a contemporary look and comfort in mind. It is immaculate, breezy with fans throughout, very well organized with living in style in mind. The kitchen and den overlook the lush garden that the homeowners have enjoyed nurturing for 23 years. The foliage is beautiful and a pleasure to enjoy over morning coffee or tea in the kitchen nook. We absolutely love our home, proximity to the pool and spa and beaches, and are proud to have our guests enjoy it as well!

What makes this property unique

Location! Carmel Valley is conveniently located between beaches, North County's beach quaint cities, Legoland, and downtown's Gaslamp Quarter, funky Hillcrest, Balboa Park.
