About This Home

As of October 2020

CURRENTLY LOWEST PRICED ACTIVE 2/2 CONDO IN MLS IN CARPINTERIA! Wonderful, bright, 2/2 END UNIT townhome in Singing Springs! Often considered the best location in the complex with a balcony that faces the creek, offering a rare space of peace & quiet, and lovely views of greenery, squirrels, birds, & monarch butterflies. Longtime owners have taken great care of the property and made several upgrades over the years, including new cabinet doors & countertops, updated baths, an in-unit washer/dryer, and is freshly-painted. Very cool, Deco-opening in master bedroom wall takes full advantage of the light in atrium area from the floor-to-ceiling windows! End unit offers privacy, yet still just steps away from neighbors and parking. Only a 5-minute walk or short bike ride to downtown!
