Profhoff congrats on coming to Leucadia! A single-story is a score. Water’s End is very pretty and I think active families will always want that area because it’s walking distance to surf and Pacific Rim is the best Cbad elementary school.
We are in a similar-to-Water’s End neighborhood off of Vulcan and very happy. A single level is VERY appealing as we have 2 story.
I think the whole pandemic is what has made lesser LC Oaks houses sell for so much. There are just more rooms and enough yards. Recent sales on Corte Brisa and Sitio Corazon/Sitio Caliente have stunned me. I remember when ColRich was sitting on an inventory of those new in 2011-2012 and begging you to take one.
Also considering we are now in the sport of riffing about individual homes (I loved that Olivenhain one) I am watching 348 Fulvia https://www.redfin.com/CA/Encinitas/348-Fulvia-St-92024/home/167449771. I don’t think the lot was the better one of these by any stretch (weird yard and neighbors above you) but it sold for $2.4 something new not 18 months ago.
