If you've been searching for space, privacy, and single-story living without sacrificing convenience, this is the opportunity you've been waiting for. Tucked behind the gates of Walnut Hills, this rare ranch-style home sits on nearly one flat, usable acre - a combination that's becoming increasingly difficult to find in North County.  Designed for the way people want to live, the home welcomes you with soaring vaulted ceilings, expansive living spaces, and walls of glass that flood the interior with natural light while creating a seamless connection to the outdoors. Fresh interior updates complement the home's timeless architecture while allowing its exceptional floor plan, lot, and setting to take center stage.  It's not just the home that's rare, it's what the land allows you to do.
