Welcome to this beautifully upgraded 3-bedroom + loft, 2.5-bath home offering 2,148 sq. ft. of stylish living in the coveted guard-gated community of Emerald Heights. Enter through a natural stone entryway onto rich wood floors, where a dual-sided fireplace connects the living and family rooms that feature plantation shutters and wood blinds. The chef’s kitchen awaits with granite countertops, Tuscan-style tile accents, double ovens, a spacious island, GE Profile fridge, and custom cabinetry with convenient pull-out shelves. Two separate sets of doors open to the private, shaded backyard with custom herringbone brick rear patio and flagstone side yard. Upstairs features newer carpet, a versatile loft (ideal as a home office or potential 4th bedroom), and a spacious primary suite with a private balcony offering breathtaking mountain—and even ocean—views. The spa-like ensuite boasts a dual vanity, jetted tub and oversized dual-head shower. Additional upgrades include crown molding, whole-house surround sound, and a 20-panel 8.06kWh solar system, custom garage workbench and epoxy floors. Known as the “Island in the Sky,” Emerald Heights offers resort-style living with a Jr. Olympic pool, spa, tennis/pickleball courts, clubhouse, and year-round community events like holiday parties, food trucks, and a 4th of July parade. Zoned for award-winning San Marcos schools, including newly rebuilt Richland Elementary.
