About This Home

As of November 2023

Located on a peaceful cul-de-sac in Oceanside’s sought-after 55-and-better community of Costa Serena, this updated turnkey home is primed for years of enjoyment. With only one garage wall shared with its neighbor, the single-story floorplan feels like a detached home. Bright and open, it measures approximately 827 square feet and presents two bedrooms, and one bath upgraded with upscale tile, a new vanity and a fashionable picture-frame mirror. The living room opens directly to a kitchen with dining nook, granite countertops, white cabinetry, a pantry, and white appliances including a washer and dryer. One bedroom offers access to the backyard, and additional enhancements include ceiling fans, dual-paned windows and an attached one-car garage with additional parking space in the driveway. The backyard is large and private, complementing a 5,100-square-foot homesite with a spacious covered patio and low-maintenance landscaping. Costa Serena offers well-maintained residences, wide sidewalks and rolling hills that capture ocean views in select locations. The Shoppes at Carlsbad, supermarkets, major retailers, medical services, and miles upon miles of gorgeous beaches are nearby. Highway 78, I-5 and Amtrak train service make it easy to get to San Diego and Orange County. Oceanside’s pier, newly revitalized downtown, and popular El Camino Country Club and golf course are just minutes from home.
