Room to grow in the Lake Hodges Valley. Custom-built by the owner in 2010 and offered for the first time, this 3,392 sq ft home sits on just over two acres in one of Escondido's most desirable pockets, backing to open space that leads to Lake Hodges. Four bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and a tiled arched colonnade balcony that runs nearly the length of the home — the heart of how this property is meant to be lived in, with sunset views across the valley. Beyond the finished space, a substantial unfinished lower level is framed and insulated, with electrical and plumbing accessible and the septic sized to accommodate it — bring your contractor and your vision. Lot supports an ADU; acreage leaves room for an orchard, vineyard, or gardens. Mature fruit trees, fish pond, seasonal stream. Solar in place. Two-car garage, two roll-ups. Major systems solid; cosmetic updates wanted. Offered as-is, priced accordingly, ready for the next owner's vision.
