About This Home

As of November 2018

Don't miss this one! There really isn't another like it. Lovely, clean, move-in ready townhome in a fabulous location in the heart of Brea. Large kitchen with lots of counter space, recessed lights, new dishwasher, microwave, and 5-burner gas range. You have direct-access to your attached, over-sized two-car garage. No complaints about closet space with this one since both bedrooms have a large closet AND a walk-in closet. Each bedroom is en suite with their own Full bathroom. The stated sqft is almost deceiving since it feels larger than the number. Commuter friendly location is conveniently located to freeway access and major streets. If you enjoy walking (or want to walk more!) this has an impressive 86 Walkscore, which means that most errands can be done without a car. Incredibly located within walking distance to Brea Mall, Birch Street Promenade, dining, theatres (movies and live stage), entertainment, shops, personal services, banking, Brea Community Center (with Fitness Center), Brea Civic Center (with art gallery and Curtis Theatre). Seriously, you can walk to all of this! The phrase "good things come to those who wait" could not be more appropriate. It's ready for you to call it your own.
