Clay tiled roof, white stucco walls, accents of arches, stone throughout, and an expansive, private backyard space: 2434 Mica Road brings Santa Barbara to Carlsbad. The owner of this exquisite 3,217 SF property has invested more than $350,000 in upgrading and polishing this gem into a one-of-a-kind offering. Rarely available in La Costa Greens, we present four bedrooms and four full bathrooms, with a full bed and bath on the main level. Where to begin with the upgrades ? let?s start with the kitchen, remodeled in 2017. Unpolished black granite frames the back countertop, while the island countertop gleams in white quartz. A chef?s six-burner Bosch cooktop compliments the Bosch double oven, LG Inverter Liner refrigerator and Bosch dishwasher. The deep undermount sink catches your eye, but then your eye is more captivated by the white glass backsplash. In-ceiling LED lighting throughout this open space joins the living room with its fireplace and further adjoins the open but formal dining room. The new staircase and railing add a modern and fresh twist to a traditional banister. A key living space awaits at the top of the stairs, a bonus living/family room. TV, sofas, chairs and a bathroom make this area a self-contained entertainment space. The double-sized primary bedroom and stunning primary bathroom, remodeled in 2022, are top notch, providing a coastal beach living feel in whites and greys. A private balcony with vista views to the southwest, a tray ceiling, modern ceiling fan, and open bedroom space. The bath: enormous dual vanities with fresh lighting provide tremendous WOW factor; a luxurious soaking tub with river rock flooring, large walk-in shower with a frameless door and an attached walk-in closet complete the bathroom suite. You will love the luxury grey vinyl plank flooring throughout the property and new carpeting upstairs. The design aesthetic never misses. It feels like every surface has been touched by upgrades and improvements. This is a stately home that must be seen. There is a high quality of lifestyle offered in the backyard ? open to the downstairs, this private space is located at the end of the row of homes so there is no neighbor to the north. The undeveloped hillside, maintained by the HOA, offers additional quiet space. A new BBQ island, Trex decking, turf and seating areas connect to the landscaped and hardscaped south side of the home that leads to the front door. New exterior painting and new outside lighting were added in 2022. One side of the yard has a new retaining wall and new pavers. On the other side is a formal dog run that can stay or convert it to another use of your choice. Within the community enjoy the amenities at The Presidio including trails, swimming, pickle ball, tennis courts, and a gym. Speaking of a gym, this property has a three-car garage layout in a 2 + 1 format. The one-car separate garage has been converted to a gym and is the perfect space for meditating, yoga or weights. To keep it fun, this room also has a TV. Other touches include fully paid solar, new AC condenser replaced in 2017, dual thermostats upstairs and downstairs; new baseboards, fresh paint, dual paned windows, plantation shutters and lots of natural light. We hope you?ll find time to visit this property while it?s available, which may not be for long.
