About This Home

As of May 2024

DARE TO COMPARE! You will not find a better townhome value in all of South County. This END UNIT with enclosed garage is just waiting for you to add your own taste and style. So many “non sexy” but important upgrades have already been done here...including PEX piping in the entire community, newer HVAC system with recent service, newer water heater, newer patio fencing, newer garage door and more! The layout has almost 1200 square feet and can not be beat...with all of the right spaces in all of the right places. Large living room is great for entertaining, and the HUGE kitchen/dining space is perfect for an island, breakfast bar, pantry space and more..plus there is a convenient slider to private patio...the perfect spot for BBQs. The upstairs offers two king-sized bedrooms...both with walk-in closets, full bath and handy laundry area. The popular Sycamore Glen community has expansive greenbelts, mature trees and loads of off and on-street parking, plus shopping and transportation, Laguna Beach and Irvine Spectrum are just minutes away. You’ll love this EZ, resort-style living with pool, hot tub, tennis courts and neighborhood park just steps away. Pick your paint and carpet and you’re home!
