Welcome to 1817 Castle Glen, a beautifully refreshed home tucked into the desirable View Terrace community of Southwest Escondido. Ideally positioned away from through traffic with ample nearby street and guest parking, this home offers a wonderful combination of privacy, thoughtful updates, indoor/outdoor living and convenient access to everything North County has to offer.  A grand double-door entrance welcomes you into a light and inviting interior, freshly painted in a custom color palette and complemented by engineered hardwood flooring, new ceiling fans and updated lighting throughout. The comfortable living space centers around a cozy fireplace, while the kitchen offers a walk-in pantry and excellent storage. Both bathrooms have been refreshed with new vanities, and the spacious primary suite features new carpet, a modern closet door and its own private patio.  One of the standout features is the private atrium, where a brand-new redwood deck creates a seamless extension of the living space and a perfect setting for morning coffee, entertaining or relaxing outdoors. The freshly landscaped, low-maintenance yard continues the easy-care lifestyle with a charming brick pathway, new decomposed granite and solar lighting. The elevated backyard provides additional privacy along with calming breezes and views toward the surrounding hills. The property is fully fenced with two gates for convenient access.  Additional features include central A/C, an oversized two-car garage with plenty of storage, and a full suite of appliances that come with the home, including the refrigerator, washer and dryer. For added peace of mind, the home also comes with Section 1 termite clearance and a report of compliance from the Escondido Fire Department following its AB 38 defensible space inspection.  View Terrace offers an impressive collection of community amenities surrounded by mature landscaping and green space, including a pool and spa, pickleball/tennis court, basketball court, tot lot, picnic area and walking paths. Enjoy a convenient Southwest Escondido location near shopping, restaurants, grocery stores, hospitals, Cal State San Marcos and outdoor recreation, with easy access to both the 15 and 78.
