About This Home

As of August 2025

Tucked away in the community of La Costa Alta is a beautifully upgraded second story corner unit combining modern comfort with upscale finishes. The chef’s kitchen is a true highlight, featuring custom cherry wood, soft-close cabinets with dovetail joints, lazy Susans, a pull-out spice rack, granite countertops, a large farm sink, and stainless steel appliances—including a brand-new stove (2024, under warranty). You’ll also love the jet tub in the bathroom and the brand-new HVAC system installed in 2024 still under warranty. Thoughtful details throughout include travertine flooring, a marble fireplace mantle, plantation shutters, crown molding, and custom walk-in closet shelving. You’ll have your own garage for secure parking, plus a second assigned spot you can easily see from the unit. Residents of this pet-friendly community enjoy expansive grassy areas, ocean breezes, and access to a pool, clubhouse, and fitness center. Water, sewer, and trash are included in the HOA.
