Bathed in natural light, the space showcases preserved mid-century details, stunning hardwood floors, and a beautiful wood-paneled ceiling, with ocean views from west-facing windows that glow at sunset. The private guest home has its own entrance with no shared spaces, offering complete privacy. While we live on the property above, the guest home is fully separate and designed for a peaceful, independent stay. The recently remodeled kitchen is fully stocked with all the essentials, featuring brand-new appliances and generous storage. Enjoy breakfast on your private patio, or unwind on the front porch as the sun sets over the Pacific. Located on a quiet street just steps from the Coastal Rail Trail, the home is within easy walking distance of shops, restaurants, coffee spots, yoga studios, parks, and the Encinitas Public Library. Moonlight Beach is just half a mile away, and the world-famous surf break at Swami’s Beach is one mile north. Public transportation by bus or train is only a block away, making it easy to explore the area. As with many coastal homes in Encinitas, train activity can be heard, adding to the authentic seaside charm and convenient location. Enjoy nearby farmers markets on Saturdays at MiraCosta College and Sundays at Paul Ecke Elementary School. Take a stroll through the beautiful Self-Realization Fellowship gardens, just a short walk away, or visit the San Diego Botanic Garden, a quick drive from the home. The Del Mar Fairgrounds, located five miles south, hosts the San Diego County Fair in summer, year-round concerts at The Sound, and the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club races from July through September. Whether you’re here for the beach, design, or walkable coastal living, this mid-century gem offers a relaxed and stylish Encinitas retreat. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Hardwood flooring in public areas - No elevator - Single level property - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Housekeeping (on request) - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In the city center - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near a zoo - Near an outlet shopping mall - Near the sea ### Things to do - Mountain biking nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Theme park nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - Housekeeping (on request) - Unit size: 1,200 square feet ## Similar properties ![TV, fireplace, table tennis](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/124000000/123810000/123807900/123807897/4d2809df.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Lux Casita with Pickleball & Resort Amenities Olivenhain - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-24&endDate=2026-02-25&selected=123807897&PinnedHotelID=123807897&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach nearby](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/92000000/91570000/91563400/91563398/9432c35d.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Beachy Boho located in the Heart of Encinitas Downtown Encinitas - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly 10 Exceptional 9 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-24&endDate=2026-02-25&selected=91563398&PinnedHotelID=91563398&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/122000000/121750000/121749300/121749270/w1267h734x5y0-c3413fc4.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Serene beach retreat house in charming Encinitas with AC Encinitas - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning - Parking available [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-24&endDate=2026-02-25&selected=121749270&PinnedHotelID=121749270&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![On the beach, sun loungers, beach towels](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/98000000/97040000/97034300/97034258/8daf3b62.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Celebrity owned, 1800 sq. feet, 3 bdrm./2.5 bath art filled beachfront property.
