About this home
Designer-Perfect Townhome in the Heart of Walteria — Lives Like a Single Family Home
Welcome to this beautifully maintained, barely lived-in front-unit townhouse that offers the space, style, and comfort of a single-family residence. Located in the highly desirable Walteria neighborhood—directly across from a charming park and the Walteria Library—this home is truly move-in ready, down to the finest designer details.
Set behind a lush privacy hedge, this front-facing unit enjoys serenity and separation, with only one shared wall and the rest of the structure free-standing. Step inside to find an open, airy layout flooded with natural light. The chef’s kitchen is a standout feature with scalloped-edge Violeta marble countertops, a center island with built-in dining bench, smart motorized pop-up outlets, and a breakfast bar—perfect for everyday living and entertaining.
Upstairs, all bedrooms are thoughtfully located, including a spacious primary suite with soaring ceilings, a generous walk-in closet, and a breezy private balcony. A versatile bonus loft at the top of the stairs offers flexible space for a home office, study area, or playroom.
Modern amenities include a tankless water heater, whole-house water filtration system, smart thermostat, and forced air heating and central A/C. Designer plumbing fixtures, rainshowers elevate the bathrooms, while a hardwired ADT security system provides peace of mind with sensors on every window and door—an important feature given current trends in local break-ins.
The private yard is a true outdoor retreat—spacious enough for dining, lounging, gardening, and grilling, all under ambient string lights that make evenings extra special.
Additional highlights:
• Attached two-car garage with ample built-in storage
• Located near award-winning schools, shopping, and freeway access
• Quiet, well-kept neighborhood with a real community feel
This is more than a townhouse—it’s a thoughtfully designed, light-filled retreat that feels like home the moment you step inside.
