About this property
Dreamy, one-of-a-kind beach bungalow on Neptune! Hot tub/2 blocks to beaches.
Get a taste of the Encinitas/Leucadia laidback, surf and beach lifestyle in this charming, updated, bright and spacious 1 bedroom, 1.5 bath bungalow. Just 2 blocks walk to Stone Steps and 3 to Beacon's beaches. Open living, kitchen and dining with La Cantina multi-panel glass doors and sky lights that let the outdoors in. The main level has private fenced courtyards and patios with lockable front gate and succulents galore. Chill in the hot tub, read under the covered veranda and grill on the outdoor bbq deck. Well equipped kitchen with stainless appliances. Two separate work spaces just in case business calls. Lovely views to the east. It's a leisurely one block walk to the coveted Pannikin coffee shop and other Coast Highway eateries and shops. Feel free to use any beach gear, a soft-top surf board and cruiser bikes that are located in main level storage sheds. Easy street parking along property line. Requires a minimum of 31 night stay. Please note, this is a quiet neighborhood and the Encinitas noise ordinance is in full effect. No parties, loud music or events allowed.
The attached lower level owner office/ studio with separate entrance is not included in the rental, but if you have a need for additional work or guest space, please inquire and we will provide a quote with the additional nightly fee.

About the host
Hosted by Meli Barrett
Originally from the east coast, we relocated to California over 30 years ago and lived in this special neighborhood over 10. We love the weather and the proximity to great beaches, surf and inland trails. We're also travelers, lovers of the mountains and since covid, now spend most of our time in the Teton valleys of Idaho and Wyoming. Sad to say, our life and work only occasionally takes us back to the Leucadia bubble, so in the meantime, we're happy to open our home to like-minded travelers who appreciate unique spaces and communities!
