Large new-construction windows and sliding doors bring in abundant natural light and frame the surrounding hills and valley. Outdoor living is a major part of the experience. An expansive veranda, complete with a fire pit for your enjoyment, provides a beautiful setting for relaxing, entertaining and taking in the sunsets, while a separate deck off the kitchen and family room is ideal for BBQs and al fresco dining. Updated cable railings help preserve the open views, and the pool and grounds below create a resort-like backdrop. The spacious main-level primary suite enjoys direct access to the veranda, along with a generous walk-in closet with built-ins and an updated bath. The main level also includes an additional full bath and powder room, providing comfort and convenience for family and guests. Downstairs is where the home becomes especially unique. This highly versatile second living environment features a second primary-style bedroom with ensuite bath and direct backyard access, a large family/game room with fireplace, wet bar/kitchenette, guest powder room, additional bonus/flex space and abundant storage. With its own substantial living area and direct access to the pool and backyard, the lower level offers exceptional possibilities for multigenerational living, extended family, adult children, long-term guests, work-from-home needs or simply creating a private retreat within the home. The expansive grounds feature mature landscaping, artificial turf and a thriving irrigated orchard with numerous fruit trees. Additional improvements include new composite siding, new-construction windows and sliding doors, two efficient HVAC systems with updated ductwork and venting, 32 owned solar panels and an on-demand electric water heater. Beautifully updated, professionally prepared and filled with spaces that take full advantage of the setting, 1118 Orangewood Drive delivers acreage, privacy, views, sunsets, a pool and a remarkably flexible floor plan—all in one distinctive Escondido property.
