Welcome to 2717 Alexander Drive -- a private gated estate on a sprawling 1.19-acre lot in one of Escondido's most peaceful and picturesque neighborhoods. This beautifully appointed 4-bedroom home is tucked behind electric gates and offers the kind of privacy, space, and serenity that is rarely found this close to everyday conveniences. Inside, you'll discover an open, light-filled layout with panoramic mountain views from nearly every room. The thoughtful floor plan places the expansive primary suite on one side of the home, providing a true owner's retreat, while three additional generously sized bedrooms are located on the opposite side -- ideal for guests, extended living, or a dedicated home office. Outdoors, a large wraparound patio frames sweeping south- and west-facing views, perfect for morning coffee, alfresco dining, or watching the sun set behind the mountains. A sparkling pool, fully enclosed by secure gating, offers a private oasis for relaxation and entertaining year-round. The property features a generous 3-car garage with ample driveway parking, and a flat, graded pad connected directly to the driveway presents an incredible opportunity to build a guest house, ADU, or workshop. Situated just 1,000 feet from the entrance to Felicita County Park -- a beloved 346-acre destination featuring miles of scenic trails through ancient oak groves, a year-round creek, playgrounds, and picnic areas -- this home puts nature right at your doorstep. While the property feels like a country retreat surrounded by open space and mountain views, the I-15 freeway is less than five minutes away, North County Mall is just around the corner, and Escondido's vibrant Grand Avenue corridor offers an eclectic mix of boutique shops, acclaimed restaurants, and craft breweries. Total privacy and tranquility at home, with everything you need just moments away. This is more than a home -- it's a lifestyle.
