Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 2004, the property is 22 years old, placing it in the 'Fair' category. While the home is move-in ready with brand-new carpet and functional HVAC, the kitchen and bathrooms remain dated with original builder-grade finishes and 20+ year old systems that will eventually require updating.
The property features a low HOA fee of $296 and no Mello Roos, significantly reducing monthly carrying costs and enhancing its appeal for both first-time buyers and investors.
Situated near Cal State San Marcos and the vibrant North City district, the home offers excellent proximity to dining, shopping, and major freeways, ensuring high lifestyle convenience and rental demand.
As a rare end-unit, this move-in-ready home provides extra privacy, dual en-suite bedrooms on the top floor, and an attached two-car garage, offering a functional and modern living arrangement.
The tri-level floor plan necessitates frequent stair climbing, which may be a drawback for buyers with mobility concerns or those seeking a more accessible single-level flow.
With 1,228 square feet distributed across three bedrooms and three levels, the individual living areas and bedrooms may feel somewhat confined compared to larger townhome models.
