Step outside to the solid covered balcony deck with scenic views. Inside laundry room with built-in cabinetry. Just down the exterior hallway is a trash chute for easy disposal, regular trash & recyclables.

Then enter through the secure private lobby & up the elevator to your turnkey home - life couldn't be easier! The exclusive Buena Vida clubhouse (for 55+ residents only) is the focal point of the community, where social events, holiday parties, activities, exercise classes, and arts & crafts happen. Amenities include a fitness center, lounge, ballroom, catering kitchen, and a multipurpose room. Residents enjoy the beautiful SoCal climate while spending time outdoors playing pickle ball, relaxing at the sparkling pool, spa, and patio and gathering with new friends & neighbors at the BBQ patio & fire pit.
