About this property

Neptune beach house

This completely remodeled 4-bedroom, 2 bath home is just four houses from the Stone Steps beach access in the charming Encinitas neighborhood of Leucadia. You will find everything you need to relax and play on the desirable Neptune Avenue, just a short distance from three Encinitas public beaches – 50’ from Stone Steps, ½ mile from Moonlight and ¾ mile from Beacon’s.

The house boasts four bedrooms set up to accommodate two families and up to nine guests. There are two king bedrooms, each containing a desk in case brief bouts of work surface while vacationing. Bathrobes are also provided for the adults for morning or afternoon comfort. The two other rooms are set up for children – one with a full/single bunkbed plus single trundle and the other with two singles. You will find a main living room in the front of the house adjacent to the kitchen and dining room and a secondary “family” room for movie watching and playing on the classic Ms. PacMan arcade machine in the back. Both living rooms have large flat screen TVs.

The beautifully landscaped front yard has been meticulously set up for evenings outside. A built-in gas BBQ and a table for 8 makes dining easy and comfortable. An outdoor sofa and chairs surround the outdoor firepit for after dinner conversations and relaxation. Built in landscaping lights run on a timer so the yard is softly lit to enhance your experience. Bistro lights can be added when more light is needed for your outdoor meals and family time.

In the garage you will find a plethora of outdoor and beach toys: bikes with helmets and bike locks, surf boards, boogie boards, wetsuits, beach chairs, a small backpack cooler, umbrellas, beach toys, and even a beach wagon for hauling it all to the beach. An outdoor shower in the front yard makes it easy to clean off after a fun day at the beach.

Additional features of this home include air conditioning, whole house water filtration with additional reverse osmosis filtration for drinking water in the kitchen, a gas fireplace in the living room, large HE washer/dryer in garage with additional smaller unit in the house, 500GB WIFI, beach towels, Tripp Trapp highchair, pack-n-play, weekly yard maintenance, kids toys and books and off street parking.

As part of the remodel process, eco-conscious decisions were made at every opportunity. You will find the bedding consists of organic sheets and hypoallergenic pillows. Green cleaning supplies are utilized and provided for rental use. We also ask renters of the home to responsibility recycle. The home contains an ecobee thermostat so that the heating and cooling is only utilized when needed. Water smart landscaping and non-VOC paint was also used to make this home clean and green.

The laid-back neighborhood provides for great running, walking and biking up and down the social street of Neptune, the activity center of Leucadia. You will find walkers of all ages, runners enjoying the ocean breeze and cyclists chatting as they ride. This location is conveniently close walking distance to the Leucadia Sunday farmer’s market, great dining and shops in both Encinitas and Leucadia.

This house is a non-smoking, no pets home – absolutely no exceptions. We are excited to share our family beach home with you, and our goal is to have each and every guest arrive and feel at home for your time at the beach.

Annual Trip
We are a group of friends that grew up together and now live in different states. We take an annual trip every year to San Diego and have rented many places. This place was truly excellent. Great location, close to beach and exactly as shown online. We will definitely come back again!

The place was perfect for our two families.
The house was ideal for our two families. We loved have the bikes to head to the surf breaks. And the body boards for those who didn’t surf. The main room was ideal for family dinners and hanging out playing cards after. I can’t wait to return.

Awesome house and location!
This was the perfect property for our stay, which included my family and my sister and her family. The property was beautifully designed inside, and the location, just steps from Stone Steps beach, was perfect for morning and sunset walks along the beach. We especially enjoyed the gathering around the outdoor area. The host was outstanding, and everything was as shown on the listing - and even better in person. They even had a pack and play set up upon arrival for my sister’s baby. We would absolutely book this property again.

Great Shack with a Great View
This is no Shack when you walk in, but we just found it awesome that it was called that for how amazing and brand new everything is. It is a half a block away from incredible views and a quiet and welcoming neighborhood. Thank you for the hospitality, Filipe

Great house! Amazing Location!
The house is excellent, with a wonderful front yard and patio. The inside is clean an spacious. Our family truly enjoyed the home, and the neighborhood! The street out front has limited traffic and is full of folks walking/running. It is steps from a beautiful view of the ocean and steps to the beach. Loved it. Galyn was excellent to work with!

Beautiful modern home, steps from the beach
We had an amazing weekend at this home in Encinitas. The home is spacious, clean, well designed and perfect for indoor and outdoor living. With a group of five adults, we had plenty of room. Stairs down to the beach are just steps away and the villages of Leucadia and Encinitas with their wealth of stores and restaurants are close. The property manager was incredibly responsive and supportive leading up to and during our stay. Highly recommend this property!

Absolutely Perfect Spot in SoCal
You know how some rentals just totally exceed your expectations? This one is that. We were a party of five (husband/wife + 6 year old + grandparents) and this house was amazing. So well laid out (plenty of space!), so clean, uncluttered, and really terrifically located for exploring everywhere from the surf towns of Encinitas and Leucadia all the way down to San Diego. It's a short 3-4 block walk to a fantastic coffee shop and other businesses and you're also super close to I-5, which is great for exploring. And the beach! It's literally RIGHT THERE. Between the wetsuits and surfboards (we never would have done this if it hadn't been for the home's provided equipment!), the arcade machine with 60+ games, and the amazing front yard for lounging, I thought we may never leave.

Awesome & Beautiful Home
Enjoyed a Friendsgiving weekend with 7 friends at this beautiful home & it was perfect for what I was looking for. Super Clean & a Modern remodeled home, Close to the beach & downtown Encinitas & only 20-30 min drive from Various San Diego Hot spots. We especially loved the outdoor seating area with the fire pit & outdoor dining area. It was also nice that the home accommodates for those that need to work remotely & has separate parking area. Galyn was great and easy to contact. We Would love to stay here again!
