Overview

Tucked away on a quiet, private 0.53-acre lot in Vista’s Orleavo Heights neighborhood, this beautifully upgraded home offers the kind of space, flexibility, and indoor-outdoor living that’s hard to find. With sweeping 180-degree views of city lights, rolling hills, fireworks, and the ocean, this property feels peaceful and secluded while still close to everything. MORE BEAUTIFUL PICTURES TO COME! Spanning approximately 3,171 square feet, the home features 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and a flexible two-level layout that accommodates multigenerational living, guests, or extended stays. The main level includes open living spaces filled with natural light, a beautiful fireplace with custom-tiled surround, a true Chef's kitchen with stainless steel appliances, a spacious dining area, a laundry room, and three bedrooms, including a remodeled primary suite with a walk-in closet and beautifully updated bath. One of the standout features of the home is the incredible indoor-outdoor flow. La Cantina doors open to a recently added wraparound TREX deck with custom railings and a covered entertaining area complete with skylights and a built-in BBQ. Whether you're hosting friends, enjoying dinner outside, or simply taking in the views, this space was designed for year-round enjoyment. The lower level offers its own living area, two additional bedrooms, and one bath, with plumbing already in place for a future kitchen, creating great potential for a guest suite or ADU setup. There’s also a lower deck with a Caldera 6-person hot tub tucked into a more private setting. Recent improvements and standout features throughout the property include all-new hand-troweled stucco, Milgard casement windows, new fencing, updated hardscape, a tankless water heater with a recirculation loop, dual furnaces, a whole-house attic fan system, and a transferable Sunrun solar system for energy efficiency and long-term savings. With a 3-car garage, no HOA, and plenty of room to spread out, this home offers luxury and versatility in one of Vista’s most peaceful settings. Easy drive to revitalized downtown Vista, Moonlight Ampitheatre, freeways, and the beach!
