8874 Stargaze Ave

Ocean views, owned solar, and a truly unforgettable backyard, this is one of those rare Rancho Peñasquitos homes buyers wait for and rarely find, located within the award-winning Poway Unified School District. The backyard is the showstopper. Step through multiple patio doors into a covered dining veranda that feels like a natural extension of the home, complete with heat lamps and fans for year-round al fresco dining. This is where evenings stretch a little longer, sharing dinner, enjoying a glass of wine, and fully embracing San Diego's indoor-outdoor lifestyle. Designed for entertaining and everyday enjoyment, the terraced yard captures sweeping mountain and ocean views and feels like a private resort. Multiple levels feature Trex decking, a spa, a tranquil waterfall with bridge, mature lemon, lime, and avocado trees, outdoor shower, and low-maintenance turf. Water-tolerant, landscaping in both the front and back yards offers beauty without the upkeep. Whether hosting friends or enjoying a quiet sunset, this outdoor space truly sets the home apart. A charming front patio provides another peaceful place to start your day with coffee and ocean views. Inside, the home is freshly painted, light-filled, and beautifully maintained. Offering thoughtfully designed living spaces enhanced by large windows and skylights, bamboo flooring upstairs, and upgrades throughout that create a warm, move-in-ready feel from the moment you step inside. The primary bedroom suite feels like a private retreat, featuring a garden tub, spa-style walk-in shower with multi-spray features, and an adjacent fourth bedroom currently designed as an expansive custom walk-in closet with built-ins, but can be easily converted back to the 4th bedroom, nursery, or home office. Additional highlights include a spacious two-car garage, whole house fan, whole-house water filtration system, and fully owned solar. Set in one of San Diego County's most desirable communities, Rancho Peñasquitos offers top-rated Poway Unified schools, scenic canyon and mountain surroundings, nearby hiking trails, parks, golf, dining, and convenient freeway access to the coast, tech corridors, and downtown San Diego. Whether hosting friends or enjoying a quiet sunset at home, this property offers a lifestyle that's as special as it is hard to find.
