When you have waited your whole life to buy a home in Encinitas and now you're ready, you create a wish list that you tell no one about: single story, large corner lot, basically untouched, except for some outstanding kitchen appliances so you can cook while you DIY; good vibes, south of Encinitas Boulevard, and in a location that feels right. No HOA. Trees in the backyard. Something you can turn into your own legacy. And you're price conscious. That's quite a secret wish list! We offer 601 Cerro Street for your consideration. Asking $1,649,000, this is an as-is sale offered for the first time in over 40 years. Single story, four bedrooms and two baths, the double-door entry is pure 1970s. Or is it the fireplace that's pure 1970s? Actually, it's both! Smooth layout, fun family room, updated kitchen, and lots to make your own. We anticipate great interest, as you can imagine. After all, this is a rare offering. Allow us to mention the backroom: It's not included in the square footage and in heavy rain the roof leaks and water can come in under the door. It was an art studio that was loved and cherished. Its 'wash-up-your-brushes' sink drains to the outside. You'll see. Buyers, if you want to tour this home, sign your buyer broker agreement and call your agent. Come to see the wow factor. It's freshly painted and bright. It's just been deep cleaned. And lots of parking, including RV. Your list is complete. This doesn't happen every day.
