About 15549 S Budlong Place 9

This "Budlong Beauty" boasts of being in a prime location in the heart Gardena. The freeway systems close by are the: 105, 110 and 405, which make navigating the city almost simple.

The "Budlong Beauty" is nestled on a quiet and wide Cul de Sac, that is nicely spotted with foliage and flowers. Sunlight floods the unit on the east and west side and the corner unit sits angled south of the pool's view. The pool and courtyard below are features that bring a kind of calm; it's is a nice area to converse with neighbors or take a moment and have an early morning cup of coffee on the patio. The unit has fairly large rooms, lots of storage space and it has "show room" styled granite in the updated kitchen and bathrooms. Recess lighting in the kitchen allow for good cooking measures. Double ovens...who sees that in a condo often, this unit has a double oven? The laundry is a few steps down the staircase and it is across from the complex's community room. Few locations in Los Angeles County have so many eateries, markets, banks, coffee shops this close! Unit 9 can be your "Cloud 9," as the mortgage may be just +/- of your present rent, (if renting). The Californian awaits its next owner to make it their own; this can be a lovely lair with a manageable mortgage, but you already know that! Give us a call and see what is on the horizon.
