Hidden away on an exclusive cul de sac in Vista's coveted Highlands, this stunning single story gem isn't just a house. It's your personal retreat from the world, and this rare find offers your private oasis on nearly ÂĽ acre! Imagine pulling into your extra wide driveway (perfect for your RV, boat, or fleet of cars) and knowing you've found something truly special. From the moment you step inside, sunlight fills every corner, creating a warm, comfortable feeling that makes you feel right at home. This isn't your typical cookie cutter home, as every detail has been thoughtfully upgraded to perfection. Picture yourself entertaining in the gorgeous open concept living space, where conversations flow as naturally as the layout, centered around a charming brick fireplace that promises cozy winter nights. Calling all home chefs and entertainers! The completely reimagined kitchen features gleaming granite countertops that practically beg for your morning coffee ritual, modern lighting that makes everything look Instagram worthy, and clever USB outlets (because who doesn't need to charge their phone while cooking?), while abundant storage and a brand new dishwasher make hosting dinner parties effortless. Every major item on your "honey do" list? Already done. New roof overhead, fresh siding and paint inside and out, updated bathrooms with modern fixtures, and even new baseboards throughout mean the sellers have invested heavily so you don't have to, delivering turnkey luxury at its finest. Here's where dreams come alive: an expansive 11,301 square foot lot that's your blank canvas for anything you can imagine. Pool parties, ADU for rental income or multi generational living, kids and pets running free. It's paradise found, with freshly hydroseeded front lawn and enhanced privacy fencing so you can truly make this space your own. Nestled in the heart of Vista's most desirable neighborhood, you're perfectly positioned for the best of both worlds. Peaceful suburban tranquility with urban conveniences just minutes away, where top rated schools, parks, shopping, and dining are all at your fingertips, while the lack of HOA means true freedom to live your life your way. Properties like this (completely updated, on nearly ÂĽ acre, in this location) don't come around often, and when they do, they don't last long, so don't spend another weekend wondering "what if?" Your dream home is waiting at 1019 Highland Drive for the Open House Saturday & Sunday, 11 AM to 3 PM. Come see why this isn't just a house. It's the beginning of your next chapter, because your private paradise is just one decision away!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
