San Diego's inland beauty

Set on the foothills of northeast Escondido, East Grove's natural surroundings give the neighborhood a bit of a rural aesthetic despite being 30 miles north of San Diego's bustling city center. East Grove is neighbored by the historic San Pasqual Valley, the Escondido Creek Trail and Daley Ranch Preserve – there's no shortage of green spaces to explore. Despite proximity to the big city and sprawling nature hubs, families enjoy being within walking distance to Orange Glen Elementary and Valley High School. "It's an up-and-coming area," says Steven Bugiel, San Diego Realtor with First Team. "East Grove sits on the outskirts where the lots are bigger and there's more privacy the further out you get. Potential homebuyers like the idea of having that escape from the busy city."
