Description

This bright and contemporary end-unit townhome is nestled in a quiet, private gated complex of only six homes. New paint and recessed lighting updated and vinyl flooring. The excellent floor plan begins with a single flight of stairs leading to an inviting, thoughtfully designed main living area. Natural light floods the space through a beautiful skylight over the staircase. The upper level features a primary bedroom with a vaulted ceiling and ample closet space, along with a spacious second bedroom—also with vaulted ceilings—a hall linen closet, and a second full bathroom. The home includes an oversized, gated two-car garage with an automatic opener, providing generous storage and convenient laundry hookups for a washer and dryer. Ideally located, this property is within walking distance of Arthur Anderson Park—which offers tennis courts, basketball courts, and expansive green fields—and is just minutes from major retailers including Albertsons, Sam's Club, Tokyo Central, and various popular restaurants. Enjoy effortless commuting with easy access to the 91, 110, and 405 freeways. A must-see property that balances comfort, convenience, and low-maintenance, drought-tolerant landscaping.
