Set on nearly 10 private acres, this 3,893 sq ft retreat captures 270° unobstructed views from the Pacific Ocean to snow-capped peaks—a daily backdrop of sunrise, sunset, and starlit skies. Offered at $2,075,000, this home delivers exceptional value at approximately $533 per sq ft, compared to smaller tract homes in nearby San Elijo Hills selling at higher prices with far less land, privacy, and architectural character.

The west wing is a tranquil primary retreat with fireplace and private balcony, while the east wing features a guest suite with full bath, ideal for extended family or guests. A huge office is perfect for remote work, studio space, or homeschooling. Entertain in the gourmet kitchen with dual stoves and walk-in pantry. Relax in the spacious living room with a semi-circular wall of windows framing the views. Three fireplaces, an atrium-style courtyard, wraparound staircase, and balconies from every room bring warmth and architectural beauty throughout. Enjoy wraparound decks, ocean breezes, and endless potential to add a pool, ADU, or vineyard. Just minutes from CSUSM and North City, yet a world apart. This is more than a home—it’s your sanctuary in the sky. Welcome to 859 Cocos Way, a rare hillside estate perched atop the prestigious Coronado Hills of San Marcos, California. Set on nearly 10 private acres, this Spanish-inspired retreat offers an unmatched combination of space, privacy, and breathtaking natural beauty. Step inside to experience almost 4,000 square feet of elegant living space with a layout designed to capture the stunning surroundings. Enjoy 270-degree panoramic views stretching from the Pacific Ocean to the snow-capped mountains—including sweeping vistas of Carlsbad, Oceanside, San Marcos, and Escondido. Here, you’ll catch both sunrises and sunsets, with ocean breezes flowing through nearly every room. This home is a true sanctuary with wrap-around decks, balconies from every bedroom, and expansive outdoor living spaces that bring the view to life. The atrium-style courtyard and circular foyer create a dramatic entrance, while the wrap-around staircase adds a touch of timeless elegance. At the heart of the home is the living room, a striking central space anchored by a semi-circular wall of windows framing endless views and one of three fireplaces found throughout the residence. The gourmet kitchen features dual stoves, a walk-in pantry, and thoughtful design details perfect for entertaining. The floorplan offers 4 bedrooms, with 3 upstairs and the master retreat privately located in the west wing, complete with its own fireplace and private balcony. On the east wing, you’ll find a guest suite with a full bath, ideal for multi-generational living or long-term guests. A massive home office provides ample space for remote work or creative pursuits. Additional features include a 3-car garage, potential to expand or build, and proximity to Cal State San Marcos, the exciting new North City development, and top-tier schools. Why settle for a tract home when you can own a Spanish castle in the sky, where every room offers a front-row seat to Southern California’s natural beauty?
