About this home
First time EVER on market - don’t miss this amazing, extra large, corner lot. Some homes just have a little more personality, and 1095 Hermes Avenue is one of them. Tucked in the heart of Leucadia on a generously sized corner lot, this funky coastal cottage captures the laid-back spirit and individuality that make this beachside community so special. Full of charm, character, and untapped potential, it's the kind of place that invites you to slow down, get creative, and make it your own. The two-bedroom home offers a comfortable, casual layout with an additional flexible room suitable for a home office, mudroom, or creative space. Every corner has its own personality, with the warmth and quirks of an original beach bungalow that simply can't be replicated in newer construction. A former garage has also been converted into an informal hangout space, offering another fun and versatile area to enjoy. Outside, the spacious corner lot provides room to spread out, entertain, garden, or dream up your own outdoor retreat. With a little love and imagination, this property has all the ingredients to become something truly special. And then there's the location. Leucadia is beloved for its unpretentious charm, thriving local businesses, surf culture, and effortlessly relaxed way of life. Spend your mornings grabbing coffee along Coast Highway 101, afternoons catching waves at Beacon's Beach, and evenings enjoying neighborhood favorites like Le Papagayo, Atelier Manna, and Fish 101. Browse the Sunday farmers market, explore the local shops and galleries, or simply soak up the coastal atmosphere that makes this pocket of Encinitas unlike anywhere else. In a neighborhood where individuality is celebrated and the best homes have a story to tell, 1095 Hermes Avenue feels right at home. A little funky, a lot of charm, and an opportunity to create your own piece of the Leucadia lifestyle.
Leucadia, located between Carlsbad and Cardiff-by-the-Sea, is a coastal and laid-back Encinitas neighborhood with a surf-break shoreline and a low-slung, eclectic streetscape. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around North Coast Highway 101 at Leucadia Boulevard, where taco counters, coffee windows, plant shops, and small galleries line the sidewalk. Mid-century cottages, beach bungalows, and contemporary infill sit behind palms and privacy hedges, giving many blocks a tucked-away feel. Beacon’s Beach and Grandview Surf Beach set the daily rhythm with blufftop paths and stairway access to the sand. Local pillars like Pannikin Coffee & Tea, Leucadia Farmers Market, and the historic La Paloma Theatre anchor the area’s creative, beach-town cadence.
