Property is move-in ready.
The property is well-maintained and move-in ready. The kitchen has been updated with modern quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances, and the living areas feature newer wood-style flooring. While the bathroom vanity and popcorn ceilings reflect the 1982 original construction, the key renovations place it in the 'Good' category.
The inclusion of a private one-car garage plus a second assigned parking space is a rare and high-value feature for a one-bedroom condo at this price point.
The kitchen features contemporary updates including white quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a deep single-basin sink, offering a move-in-ready experience.
Ideally situated near Parkway Plaza, downtown El Cajon, and major freeways (8 and 67), providing excellent accessibility for commuters and local amenities.
The unit lacks private in-unit laundry hookups, requiring residents to use the communal on-site laundry room, which may be a drawback for some buyers.
With only 638 square feet of living area, the floor plan is relatively small, which could limit appeal for those needing extra space or a home office.
Offered for the first time since 2000. This upper level condo in Villa Serena comes with something most El Cajon condos at this price do not have: a private one car garage with a roll up door, plus a second assigned parking space. The kitchen has been updated with white quartz counters, stainless steel appliances, a deep single basin sink, and a window above the sink. Wood style flooring runs through the living area and the bedroom. A corner stone fireplace anchors the living room, and the slider opens to a covered balcony above the interior greenbelt and its mature crape myrtles. The bedroom is generous for the floor plan, with a ceiling fan and a treetop view. The bath has a tub and shower combination with a cultured marble vanity. Once you are inside, everything is on one level. Villa Serena covers just over two acres of landscaped grounds with wide walking paths, lawn, boulder accents, and an on site laundry room. Chase Avenue Elementary is 0.2 miles away. Cajon Valley Middle and Grossmont High are each about 1.3 miles (Cajon Valley Union and Grossmont Union districts, per public records). Parkway Plaza, downtown El Cajon, and the 8 and 67 freeways are all minutes out. Held by the same family for over 26 years.
