About This Home
As of December 2025A first-time homebuyer's dream and a rare turnkey find in Carpinteria's Casitas Village! This beautifully redesigned 2-bedroom, 1-bath condominium has been transformed through a thoughtful, top-to-bottom remodel completed in October 2025 — a 75,000 investment in comfort, efficiency, and style. The open-concept layout feels bright and spacious, enhanced by smooth-skimmed walls, fresh designer paint, and luxury vinyl plank flooring that adds warmth and durability. Ceilings were refinished for a clean, modern look, creating an airy coastal aesthetic that perfectly fits Carpinteria's relaxed lifestyle. The all-new kitchen is the showpiece of the home, featuring custom soft-close cabinetry, elegant quartz countertops, and a full suite of LG stainless-steel appliances. Enjoy an InstaView French-door refrigerator, a whisper-quiet dishwasher with TrueSteam cleaning, a smart microwave with EasyClean interior, and a high-performance electric range with convection and air-fry settings. Every detail combines function and beauty, making everyday cooking feel effortless. Upstairs, two tranquil bedrooms provide peaceful retreats with ample natural light and plush new carpet. The renovated bathroom features a new vanity, modern fixtures, and a refinished tub and tile surround. A new water heater adds efficiency and reliability. Casitas Village offers a true sense of community with open green areas, mature landscaping, a sparkling pool, and a play area for residents. This unit includes one garage parking space (shared two-car garage), a storage closet, additional driveway parking, and generous on-street parking. Located minutes from Monte Vista Park, local cafés, Carpinteria's charming downtown, and the city's world-famous beaches, this home delivers the ideal blend of modern design and small-town coastal living.
