Property Description

Welcome to this beautifully maintained, barely lived-in newer-construction front-unit townhome in the highly desirable Walteria neighborhood, offering the space, privacy, and comfort of a single-family residence. Ideally located directly across from a neighborhood park and the Walteria Library, this light-filled home is truly move-in ready and showcases thoughtful designer finishes throughout. Set behind a lush privacy hedge, the front-facing residence enjoys exceptional separation with only one shared wall, while the remainder of the structure is free-standing. The open and airy floor plan is filled with natural light and designed for both comfortable everyday living and entertaining. The chef's kitchen features distinctive scalloped-edge Violeta marble countertops, a center island with a built-in dining bench, smart motorized pop-up outlets, and a breakfast bar. Upstairs, all bedrooms are thoughtfully situated on the same level, including a spacious primary suite with soaring ceilings, a generous walk-in closet, and a private balcony. A versatile loft provides additional space ideal for a home office, study area, or playroom. Modern amenities include a tankless water heater, whole-house water filtration system, smart thermostat, forced-air heating, and central A/C. The bathrooms are enhanced by designer plumbing fixtures and rain showers, while a hardwired ADT security system with sensors on every window and door provides added peace of mind. The private yard offers ample space for outdoor dining, lounging, gardening, and grilling, with ambient string lighting creating an inviting setting for relaxing or entertaining. Additional highlights include an attached two-car garage with extensive built-in storage, a desirable Walteria location near shopping, dining, schools, and convenient freeway access. Offering the privacy and feel of a single-family home with the benefits of newer construction and modern townhome living, this exceptional residence is truly move-in ready.
