About This Home

3224 Descanso Ave

[Seller is open to Back Up Offers] Country living meets city convenience - with a prestigious San Marcos address! Situated on over a half-acre of gently sloped, fenced land with an amazing variety of mature fruit and citrus trees. This spacious home (approximately 2,300 sq ft!) offers a great floor plan with 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, PLUS a massive bonus room complete with its own bathroom, wet bar, and private exterior entrance (with access from the kitchen area too) - making it perfect for a multi-generational living suite, or just an epic family game room. There is also a large inside combination laundry room and storage area. Bring your design ideas to life with this rare gem, which already boasts a unique church-style double-door entry, floor-to-ceiling fireplace, paid-off solar, dual-pane windows, and central A/C. The massive lot is a hobbyist's dream, featuring an oversized carport with possible RV side parking, an immense but dated concrete-floor workshop/detached garage, and multiple custom sheds around the property. R-1 Zoning. Acclaimed San Marcos Unified School District. Convenient to nearby Starbucks, local dining, shopping, groceries, and effortless freeway access.
