Wow! Experience the joy of being able to move right into your very own turnkey, UPDATED TOWNHOME with 3 bedrooms in the heart of Costa Mesa with AC! This is the largest and most popular 3-bedroom floorplan in the Monticello Townhomes community featuring 3 bedrooms on the second level. The main floor has an open living/dining/kitchen area with recently remodeled kitchen that features updated cabinets, white quartz counters, stainless steel appliances and pendant lighting over the breakfast bar. A private patio with quartz flooring and rustic bar plus a statement wall creates a unique and hip extension of the living space. An expanded modern bathroom with bathtub completes the main level. Upstairs there are three bedrooms – the primary bedroom has been modernized with a barn door entry to the giant walk-in closet. Two secondary bedrooms have views of the quiet greenbelt. Another modern bathroom with chic walk-in shower rounds out the upstairs. An oversized 2-car garage is located through the patio and provides ample parking and storage. Residents are also given one parking pass for use in any permit space on a first-come/first-serve basis. Other highlights include CENTRAL AIR & heating, whole house fan, private laundry, recessed lighting, ceiling fans, crown molding, laminate flooring, and NO CARPET. It is also situated on a scenic courtyard with charming curb appeal (due to a recent painting/woodwork project) that is great for socializing, pets or kids. There is also the possibility of creating your own front patio as many other homeowners have done (with HOA approval). The community has low HOA dues and offers 2 sparkling pools, hot tubs, a clubhouse that residents can rent, and popular holiday events that bring the community together. Prime location with easy access to the 55/405/73 freeways and a quick 10 minute drive to the beach (plus discounted fair tickets!) Located across from Vanguard University, these properties make excellent investments as well. FHA/VA ok. No Mello Roos, no land lease. Low HOA – dues include water and trash! This is one you won't want to miss since homes in this complex sell quickly due to the prime location and excellent value for Costa Mesa. This is what home should feel like!
