About This Home

Recently updated and brimming with vintage charm, this Buena Park spacious three-bedroom, one-bathroom raised first-floor condo is set within an intimate six-unit building with a lavish private backyard perfect for entertaining. The thoughtfully designed kitchen features 42" wood cabinets, newer appliances, solid-surface countertops, and a breakfast bar. This home offers an exceptional living room anchored by a cozy fireplace and a separate formal dining room ideal for hosting gatherings. Natural light pours through newer oversized windows throughout the home, highlighting newly refinished hardwood floors and fresh paint throughout, along with treelined street views, while a heated rear porch serves as the perfect sunroom, office, or morning coffee retreat. The generously sized primary bedroom easily accommodates a king bed and the second and third bedrooms provide versatility for guests, a home office, or both. Additional conveniences include in-unit laundry room with newer LG stacked washer/dryer, an oversized storage space, and one deeded exterior parking space available for an additional $15K. Outside, a massive park-like backyard offers a rare city oasis with a raised deck, lush flowerbeds, and ample room for entertaining. This home seamlessly combines timeless character with modern updates in a prime location just moments from the lakefront, trails, shopping, dining, and transit.
