Northmarq is pleased to present 836 2nd Street in Encinitas, California, a rare coastal infill opportunity located in the heart of one of San Diego County’s most desirable and supply-constrained submarkets. The property offers investors the chance to reposition or redevelop a fee-simple asset surrounded by high barriers to entry, strong tenant demand, and long-term appreciation potential within Downtown Encinitas.
Situated just blocks from the Pacific Ocean and steps from Coast Highway 101, the site benefits from exceptional walkability and proximity to the city’s premier retail, dining, and lifestyle amenities. Downtown Encinitas remains one of Southern California’s most active and resilient coastal corridors, characterized by a blend of boutique retailers, destination restaurants, and mixed-use developments that sustain year-round activity and rent growth.
Encinitas’ business-friendly planning environment and flexible zoning under the Downtown Encinitas Specific Plan (D-CM-2) allow for a wide range of redevelopment uses, including residential, commercial, or mixed-use projects. Combined with limited coastal land availability and a strong demographic profile, this offering represents an exceptional opportunity to secure a presence in one of San Diego County’s most dynamic and enduring coastal markets.
