WATERFRONT LUXURY LAGOON BEAUTY WITH BOAT SLIP! CHECK OUT THE VIRTUAL TOUR VIDEO LINK!!!

Tucked along Agua Hedionda Lagoon, this beautifully updated single level home offers unobstructed views of the lagoon and marina from the open floor plan of the living room, dining room and kitchen as well as the 2 bedrooms and deck! The beach access gives you a front-row seat to Carlsbad’s most unique coastal playground. A private 2 car garage with additional parking in front of the garage is huge plus! Step from your patio to your boat slip, launch your power boat, kayaks and SUP boards. It’s everything you will imagine when you say “I want to live by the water” but in a low-key, residential pocket instead of a crowded tourist strip. The community offers amenities you’d expect at a boutique resort: year-round heated pool, spa, fire pit, outdoor grill, sauna, fitness center, recreation room, waterfront decks, and boat slips! HOA includes all amenities, cable, internet, exterior maintenance, water and trash. Holidays bring the lagoon boat parade and lots of fireworks on the 4th of July! Even though Bristol Cove feels like its own waterfront bubble, you’re still only minutes from The Village of Carlsbad and the beach. You get the best of both worlds: the calmer, more private feel of the lagoon plus the energy, dining, and shopping of Carlsbad’s coastal core. For many residents, that combo is the whole point — you’re not choosing between “lagoon life” and “beach town life,” you’re stacking them. Carlsbad’s train station takes you to downtown San Diego to the Gaslamp District to catch the Padres or a comfortable ride to Las Angeles. Carlsbad’s top-rated schools and freeway access make it easy to enjoy all of San Diego’s attractions and neighboring beach towns! Photos have virtual staging. CHECK OUT THE VIRTUAL TOUR LINK!
