Property Description
Hands down, this is the most treasured property in Cardiff's Composer District. Architectural details are impeccably maintained while a light-filled modern ADU brings a fresh extension of the design. A rich material palette unfolds throughout. Inside, afternoon sun filters through heritage windows onto wood floors, imbuing a striking sense of history. The Craftsman is warmly anchored in Cardiff legacy. The entry sets the tone to connect with nature, and the neighborhood. Fling open the Sun Porch windows to ocean views and nightly sunsets. Outside, a vibrant community portrait unfolds. Ignite the backyard fire pit for dinner parties and cocktail hour. Inside, the living room features an original wood-burning fireplace. Another beach-house bonafide? The outdoor shower. Throughout the house, discover peek-a-boo ocean views in the kitchen, the loft, and the ADU balcony. Everyday is a Cardiff postcard. Hard to beat this backstory. The original owner who built the house was Victor Kremer—a German music publisher-turned-developer of the Composer District. Envisioning an artists' colony, Kremer named the streets after his favorite composers like Mozart, Verdi and Rubenstein. Most impressively, he affixed “by-the-Sea” to Cardiff,” taken from the 1914 song “By the Beautiful Sea.” Today, Cardiff remains one of North County's in-demand neighborhoods while the Composer District is prized for its architectural diversity. The allure: connectivity, walkability and a fit, active lifestyle. Everything is a quick jaunt: The library, post office, Seaside Market, Waverly restaurant, VGs donuts, coffee shops, schools and internationally acclaimed surf spots. A hop-skip from Mozart is the Cardiff Rail Trail, buzzing with families, joggers and dog walkers. The safe path connects to the beach and downtown Encinitas. Across the street, there's more space to frolic; the Cardiff Elementary School (K-2) transforms into a public park after school and on weekends.
