About This Property

Welcome to 1459 Lighthouse Rd, an exceptional Westcliffe residence in the heart of San Elijo Hills, offering the ultimate blend of luxury, comfort, and California indoor-outdoor living. Located in a premium gated community, this home sits on an expansive 11,743 sq ft lot and delivers an impeccable layout with 4 bedrooms, a large dedicated office, a true downstairs movie theater with reclining seating, an upstairs loft, and a spacious 3-car garage-all wrapped into a fabulous, highly functional floorplan.  Thoughtful upgrades shine throughout, including high-mil vinyl flooring, new lower-level HVAC, garage mini-split AC, and a 55-panel owned solar system for outstanding energy efficiency.  At the heart of the home, the beautifully appointed kitchen opens seamlessly to the cozy den with a fireplace-creating the perfect space for gatherings, conversations, and everyday living. The kitchen features dual ovens, a built-in Monogram refrigerator, sleek black stainless steel appliances, a beverage fridge, a large island with seating, and a walk-in pantry. It's a warm, social hub designed for both functionality and style.  There is a spacious laundry room downstairs, and for added convenience, a laundry chute from the upper level drops directly into it-making busy days easier and keeping everything effortlessly organized.  From the main living areas, double French doors lead straight to your private backyard oasis-an entertainer's dream designed for year-round enjoyment. The resort-style outdoor space features a sparkling pool, spa, gas fire pit, built-in tiki torches, and a built-in BBQ, all surrounded by generous patio spaces perfect for relaxing or hosting. Pool equipment has been fully modernized with app-based controllers and a new high-efficiency heater, while a smart sprinkler system and a Tesla electric car charger add everyday convenience.  Upstairs, the expansive primary suite serves as a true retreat, offering a large en suite bathroom with a deep built-in soaking tub, dual sinks and vanities, and a very large walk-in closet. One of the additional bedrooms functions as a junior suite, offering enough space for a sitting area-or even the potential for a future kitchenette-making it ideal for multi-generational living, long-term guests, or an elevated private hideaway. The loft adds flexibility as a lounge, study area, or play zone.  Downstairs, the dedicated movie theater provides the perfect space for immersive viewing, while the oversized office offers room to work, create, or study without compromise.  Situated in the coveted community of San Elijo Hills, residents enjoy beautifully maintained hiking and biking trails, scenic viewpoints, friendly neighbors, and a charming town center filled with shops, restaurants, and community events. Highly rated schools and several parks are just down the block, making this one of North County's most beloved master-planned neighborhoods.
