1140 Tower Dr is the perfect retreat—tucked back from the street on almost a quarter acre, it offers privacy and space to recharge. Inside, the open-concept kitchen, dining, and living areas flow seamlessly, whether you're hosting guests or enjoying a quiet evening at home. The large pantry makes grabbing a quick snack easy, while the expansive kitchen island sets the stage for gourmet dinners and lively gatherings. On cooler days, cozy up by the beautiful stone fireplace. A versatile bonus room can serve as an art studio, library, or second living area. The primary suite has it's own mini-split and opens to a spacious private patio, creating the perfect spot to relax and restore. Outside, you'll find a homesteader's dream: a full fenced backyard & Koi pond, with mature fruit trees including fig, avocado, mango, citrus, sapote, banana, and more. With paid-off solar to keep utility costs low, a newer energy-efficient heat pump heating & cooling system, plus easy access to the 78 and Downtown Vista's dining and shopping, this home blends comfort, charm, and convenience.
