Tucked at the end of a cul-de-sac on an expansive 9,900 sq ft lot with stunning panoramic views, this unique four bedroom tri-level home blends timeless character with thoughtful updates. The backyard features a pool with a rock waterfall and offers ample space for entertaining, outdoor dining, or enjoying the surrounding views. Located in the heart of the Allen-Cromwell pocket, this was originally designed and used as the Architects personal home. Inside, you’ll find original custom touches that make this home truly one of a kind, including a central vacuum system, laundry chute, original doors, built in shelving, gorgeous wood cabinetry in the kitchen, and a vintage 1960s bar full of charm and character. While preserving its distinctive style, the home has been thoughtfully updated in all the right places, maintaining hints of its history while offering modern comfort. Major system improvements provide peace of mind, including an upgraded electrical panel, water heater, air conditioning, and heating system (2025). Upgraded landscaping, updated primary bathroom, newer flooring throughout. A rare opportunity to own a home with personality, functionality, and incredible views in one of Vista’s most established neighborhoods.
