Overview

Quintessential 1950s Ranch living with modern luxury. Set across from Buddy Todd Park on an expansive half-acre lot, this exceptional Oceanside residence captures the timeless character of a quintessential 1950s-era ranch home while offering the comfort, scale, and amenities of modern living. With more than 3,000 square feet of beautifully maintained living space, a canyon backdrop, and a brand-new roof, this turnkey property offers a rare combination of vintage charm, generous proportions, and contemporary functionality. At the heart of the home is a majestic great room, where soaring ceilings and exposed beams create an impressive sense of volume while preserving the warm, inviting spirit of the original ranch architecture. A stately fireplace anchors the space and provides a natural gathering point for entertaining or relaxed everyday living. The commercial-grade kitchen is designed for serious cooking and effortless entertaining, while the oversized primary suite offers a private retreat complete with a spacious walk-in closet. A separate office with its own half bath provides an ideal work-from-home space, guest area, or flex room.

The canyon behind the property adds privacy, natural beauty, and a sense of space that is increasingly difficult to find. The result is a home with genuine architectural soul—quintessential mid-century ranch character thoughtfully paired with modern amenities and turnkey condition.
