About This Home

As of July 2024

Step into the whimsical charm of this spacious 3-bedroom townhome, complete with a bonus room, nestled in the highly coveted Country Road community in Brea. As you walk in, prepare to be dazzled by the living room featuring a fireplace, cathedral ceilings, and a sun-drenched atrium that floods the ground level with natural light.
Bookworms, prepare to swoon over the cozy reading nook under the stairs, equipped with custom cabinets. It’s like your own personal Hogwarts cupboard, minus the spiders. The kitchen, a culinary dreamland, has been upgraded with a stainless-steel dishwasher, microwave, sleek quartz counters, and top-of-the-line cabinets that are both modern and functional. This fully renovated space boasts ample storage and enough counter space for cooking prep and seating guests comfortably on the peninsula.
Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms, with the primary suite oozing spacious luxury. It features an updated shower and a skylight that bathes the room in natural light – perfect for early or lazy mornings. The guest suites also feature generous windows, with one overlooking a glorious greenbelt - the largest in the community. Both offer quiet serenity.
Take the stairs down to your attached two-car garage, which includes a bonus/media room hardwired for sound. It stays cool in the summer and makes a perfect hideout in the winter: the ultimate spot for movie marathons or pretending you’re a rock star.
Located in the heart of Brea, this gem resides in a peaceful community, offering two pools, a spa, a BBQ area, and a Clubhouse for residents only. Conveniently located with easy access to Brea downtown and a plethora of shopping spots, dining options, and parks. Plus, you’ll be part of the top-notch Brea Olinda School District, featuring Brea Olinda High, Brea Middle School, and Falcon Academy of Science and Technology. It’s like hitting the real estate jackpot!
