About This Home
As of March 2025A TRULY SPEACIAL HOME, nestled in the highly sought-after Costa Serena retirement community in Oceanside, this thoughtfully upgraded home is designed for effortless coastal living. Feel the refreshing ocean breezes as you step into a beautifully updated space that blends comfort and style. With updated luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, fresh paint, upgraded light fixtures and ceiling fans, and high-grade, Cambria Trafalgar quartz countertops, every detail has been designed with both elegance and functionality in mind. The kitchen has been enhanced with upgraded Kitchenaide Profile, advanced feature appliances, including refrigerator, 5 burner range, and dishwasher. Extended kitchen cabinetry, featuring shelves and two pantries, provides extra storage and workspace. A new, AO Smith tankless water heater ensures energy efficiency, convenience, and all the hot water you could want. The cozy sunroom offers a peaceful retreat with views of your lush, tropical backyard, filled with fruit trees, berry bushes, and vibrant flowering plants, (or can be used as a 3rd bedroom!) At the top of the terraced garden, you can unwind and take in breathtaking ocean views, watching the sun dip below the horizon. In the front, a charming sandy beach area invites you to relax and connect with friendly neighbors, making every moment at home feel like a vacation. Easy access to shopping, restaurants, parks, and major freeways, this home is less than four miles from the sand and surf. New furnace, and Solar panels with Power Purchase Agreement wherein the owner pays based on the energy the panels produce. NO HOA! Designed for both relaxation and enjoyment, this is coastal retirement living at its finest.
