The Encinitas 5 presents a rare residential development opportunity in one of North County San Diego’s most desirable coastal communities. Situated on nearly five acres in Encinitas, the offering consists of five approved homesites with a recorded subdivision map, survey, and soils report already completed. Building plans and permit applications for three of the five residences have been submitted to the City of Encinitas, providing a significant head start for a developer or builder seeking to bring the project to completion.
The planned community features five custom contemporary residences thoughtfully designed to complement the site's natural topography while minimizing grading requirements. Proposed floor plans include four-bedroom main homes paired with detached one-bedroom accessory dwelling units (ADUs), creating flexible living environments suited to modern coastal lifestyles. Architectural concepts incorporate multiple outdoor courtyards, sunken gathering spaces, and a design aesthetic intended to blend seamlessly with the surrounding open-space setting.
Homesites range from approximately 27,400 to 53,500 square feet, offering privacy, expansive open-space views, and select bay vistas. The location provides convenient access to some of Encinitas’ most sought-after amenities, including Moonlight Beach, Swami’s Beach, the Coaster Station, downtown Encinitas restaurants and shopping, and major regional transportation corridors.
The project remains in the entitlement process and will require grading improvements and final City approvals. The seller's preference is for a purchaser to assume the development program and continue working with the project architect to complete entitlement approvals, finalize building plans, and secure construction permits. With substantial pre-development work already completed and a premier coastal location, The Encinitas 5 represents an exceptional opportunity to develop a boutique residential community in a high-demand Southern California market.
