Welcome to Brookside-a highly sought-after gated community in North Escondido where charm, comfort, and lifestyle come together. From the moment you pass through the impressive entry gates and well-manicured landscape, plenty of driveway parking and three car garages, this peaceful cul-de-sac street, immediately feels like home. Step inside to soaring vaulted ceilings, abundant natural light from large windows, and elegant living and dining spaces enhanced by luxury vinyl plank flooring and a beautiful fireplace. The open-concept family room, with cozy fireplace, flows seamlessly into the kitchen, offering a warm and inviting space to relax while enjoying views of the backyard. The kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring a granite island, walk-in pantry, breakfast nook, and newly updated appliances (microwave, oven, and range replaced in October 2025). A convenient downstairs bedroom and full bath provide flexible space for guests, multigenerational living, or a private office. The laundry room is also located on the main level and includes a washer and dryer. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite offers a true retreat with views, dual walk-in closets, a soaking jacuzzi tub, separate shower, and dual vanities. Two additional bedrooms share a full bathroom, while the versatile loft-bathed in natural light from three large windows-creates the perfect space for a home office, reading nook, or bonus living area, all with scenic mountain views. Step outside to your private backyard oasis, complete with a spa and tranquil water fountain. With views of the Daley Ranch mountains, this space is ideal for entertaining, relaxing, or enjoying a weekend barbecue. The expansive 12,012 sq ft lot offers plenty of room to customize, including the potential to add a pool. A shed is also included. Recent upgrades include new recessed lighting, newer windows, and exterior paint completed in 2023. Perfectly located near walking trails, golf courses, lakes, and the vibrant downtown area-plus the Center for the Arts and a variety of highly regarded public, private, and charter schools-this home offers the ideal blend of convenience and lifestyle. Don't miss the opportunity to create lasting memories in the welcoming Brookside community.
