Hello my name is Sonia and I want to be the first to welcome you to our beautiful home! I am the homeowner and lived in this house for over ten years so I can fully appreciate and share the beauty and experience of staying here. Moving out, it gave me great solace that as a VRBO home this place can now offer memorable experiences and joy to so many others. The sophistication, the attention to detail, my crazy OCD about everything being super clean, and loving to create a hip vibe are all captured in this vacation home for you to enjoy.

I have 3 wonderful daughters (touch wood) and a loving husband. Our favorite memories are to walk down the hill, get a sandwich and other picnic items from Seaside Market, maybe a couple of doughnuts from VG Donuts, sometimes a coffee from Starbucks or Zumbar and head down to the beach. Cardiff has such a carefree feeling. You can shake off your worries and just be consumed by the beach culture and natural surroundings. During Covid, we would enjoy going for an after dinner walk locally at San Elijo Lagoon Nature Center which connects to Solana Beach and meets up with the Kook Statue back up Chesterfield and straight to the house. Other great walks include the walking path on San Elijo Drive or a short drive to Annie's Canyon. AllTrails even has so many great trails right outside our front door. Just recently, they built a great bike trail that is conveniently located from our home and passes the lagoon with breath-taking views. You can rent a bike down the street, enjoy a bike ride, and pick up some lunch along the way in one of the many restaurants or shops.

There are other great activities including downtown Encinitas - a couple mile drive with very cool shopping, massage spas, yoga studios, restaurants, bars. If you want a great souvenir, check out Bliss 101 on Highway 101 - you're sure to find treasures to take back home with you.

Why they chose this property

We looked at so many homes before we finally found the one that "felt like home." Our older daughter was 2 and baby #2 was on her way in a few months - we couldn't imagine living in our apartment with two kids worried about noise levels and privacy. We wanted something unique - not a cookie-cutter track home (not that anything is wrong with that - my parents live in a cute community that we love built by KB Homes). But we were looking for something with character in a cool place. We were not ready to sign-off to suburbia quite yet. Our wish list included being close to the ocean - so you could feel the ocean air and have that coastal feel. Having lived in hip places like Back Bay in Boston and the Upper East Side in Manhattan, we loved the option to walk down to a cool restaurant or coffee shop. Then we had to think of schools and where we wanted to raise our growing family - we wanted green space, sand, ocean, parks, local library and recreation center. And most importantly, we wanted a quiet safe place to call our own. The open floor plan, the lush gardens, koi pond, ability to enjoy a Southern California indoor-outdoor living was perfect! This home in Cardiff checked all our boxes and even some that we had not even thought about. The property is so versatile - it can be kid-friendly, family friendly, but has a young professional vibe to it as well. Truly a great vacation spot for location and quality of accommodations.

What makes this property unique

When I first saw this home, I fell in love with the Mediterranean architecture with Romeo and Juliet balconies and the open floor plan with indoor arches. The fountains outside and the koi pond were unbelievable to me considering this house is in a beach town. Since purchasing the home, we put heart and soul into it perfecting the landscape, adding a bonus room downstairs, and a connected bedroom upstairs. The paint colors literally took hours to decide upon with our fashionista Hollywood interior designer. Most of the furniture is custom. By custom, I mean a ton of research, and then with graph paper and pencil in hand, and a tape measure making drawing after drawing and then finding a manufacturing source in LA to make my dreams on paper come to reality. The dining table was a fun adventure - we searched throughout So Cal before we fabricated the slab in Los Angeles and custom designed the iron legs with their own artistic flare that speak to the arches of the dining room walls. Then the organic grass wallpaper on the ceiling and the raw crystal chandelier adds a subdued hint of elegance to the room tying it all together. We lived in this house for over a decade so you will see international personal touches everywhere - no costs were cut and it is not for mass production - all the charm, detail, and ultimate luxury intertwined to give it unparalleled beauty.
