About This Home

As of July 2017

Beautifully remodeled condo near the bluffs in Carpinteria!
This upstairs, two-bedroom home has the largest floor plan in Casitas Village and is well located toward the back of the complex. The recent remodel includes a pass-through window in the kitchen and reconfigured closets to create a functional, livable floorplan. The remodeled kitchen sports granite counter tops, stylish wood cabinetry, stainless-steel kitchen sink, and a gorgeous custom-tiled glass backsplash. The appliances were all new with the 2011 kitchen remodel and the stainless-steel refrigerator has a bottom freezer. The kitchen door opens to a sunny balcony with mountain views.

There’s plenty of room for four around a dining room table, with an extra storage closet nearby. The bedrooms in this home are spacious, and the master bedroom has a large, walk-in closet! The bathroom has been remodeled, too, with a new vanity with granite counter top and tiled shower with tub. Dual-pane windows and newer flooring throughout complete this lovely remodel. This home enjoys a garage, plus a laundry room shared with just three other homes. Guest parking is found on Hickory Street and nearby Bailard Avenue.

This move-in ready condo is just around the corner from Monte Vista Park, with it's big grassy lawns and delightful gardens. Casitas Village is just a few minutes' walk to Carpinteria Bluffs Nature Preserve, and is biking distance to downtown Carpinteria. Low HOA dues of just $305/month include water, trash, and a pool and play area too!
