Property Description

The backyard alone will stop most buyers in their tracks. Elevated above the valley with wrought iron view fencing that keeps the sightline completely open, this Otay Ranch home delivers the kind of panoramic vista, rolling hills by day, a soft spread of city lights by night, that usually comes at a significantly higher price point. The bones of the home match the setting. Walnut hardwood floors run through the main and upper levels, with travertine accents adding a natural contrast throughout. A fresh coat of paint throughout the interior and refinished cabinets give the home a clean, updated feel from the moment you walk in. The kitchen opens to a family room anchored by a custom fireplace, and the overall flow is easy and intuitive for everyday living. A full bedroom and bath on the main level handles guests or extended family without disruption to the rest of the house. Upstairs, the primary suite is finished with marble countertops, upgraded fixtures, and a custom built-in wardrobe system in the walk-in closet. Solid core bamboo doors run throughout, the kind of detail that tells you the upgrades here were thoughtful, not cosmetic. Three-car garage, community pool access, and a location close to top Otay Ranch schools, parks, and shopping round out a home that's genuinely move-in ready from day one.
