Quartz or granite counters and shaker cabinets are the most common finish path. San Marcos has a split personality in its housing stock. The older downtown neighborhoods along San Marcos Boulevard and the neighborhoods predating the 1990s growth boom have smaller homes with hall kitchen in the 5 by 8 foot range, original copper or galvanized supply lines, and limited electrical capacity. The San Elijo Hills master-planned community and the 2000s developments along Highway 78 have newer two-story homes with larger primary kitchen where a curbless walk-in shower and a pantry and appliance wall are realistic scope items. Vallecitos Water District supply is hard enough that glass shower doors show scale buildup within months of installation without a water softener, and the crew recommends addressing that before new fixtures are specified. The inland valley summer heat here regularly exceeds 95 degrees Fahrenheit, and an range hood sized to the actual room volume is a baseline spec rather than an option. HOA architectural review in the planned communities east of town applies to any exterior hood venting or window change, and the application is submitted with the design package to keep the approval timeline from delaying demo.
