Come see 1638 Landquist Drive, a light-filled 4-bedroom, 3-bath single family residence in Encinitas offering approximately 2,106 square feet of comfortable indoor-outdoor living in an exceptionally convenient coastal North County location. Set on a peaceful cul-de-sac with very little through traffic, the home feels remarkably quiet and private, yet remains close to the beach, downtown Encinitas, shopping, dining and recreation. Behind its Mediterranean-inspired stucco exterior and terracotta roof, this two-story home, built in 1987, opens to vaulted ceilings, abundant natural light and two distinct living spaces, each with its own fireplace. Large windows and glass doors connect the interiors to the outdoors, while arched details and generous room proportions give the home warmth and character. The spacious kitchen offers extensive cabinetry and counter space, stainless appliances, a large garden window and an open connection to the main living area and patio beyond. A bedroom and full bath on the main level provide flexibility for guests, a home office or multigenerational living. Upstairs, the generous primary suite features excellent natural light, a large walk-in closet and an ensuite bath with dual vanities, soaking tub and separate shower. Outside, mature drought-conscious landscaping, terracotta paving and a charming blue-tile fountain create a distinctly Southern California setting. An attached two-car garage and newer HVAC add everyday practicality, with no HOA and no Mello-Roos. Encinitas Union School District and San Dieguito Union High School District. Close to Moonlight Beach, Cardiff State Beach, San Elijo Lagoon, downtown Encinitas, Coast Highway 101, San Diego Botanic Garden, Encinitas Ranch Golf Course, shopping, dining and the COASTER, with quick access to Encinitas Boulevard, El Camino Real and Interstate 5, this home offers the best of both worlds: a central Encinitas location and a wonderfully quiet place to come home to.
