Center Town Stunner! Discover modern living in the heart of Fallbrook with this beautifully remodeled 3-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom gem-just a short walk from downtown shops, dining, and community events. Fully renovated in late 2021 and further upgraded with a new roof and fresh exterior paint in 2023, this home is move-in ready and thoughtfully enhanced throughout. The chef's kitchen is a standout, featuring granite countertops, a 36" stainless steel 6-burner gas range and oven, Whirlpool stainless steel refrigerator, a farmhouse-style sink, and custom hickory cabinets with a lazy Susan corner. A charming breakfast nook overlooks the landscaped front garden and opens seamlessly into the adjacent family room-creating an inviting flow for everyday living and entertaining. A versatile bonus room adds warmth and character with wood floors, a wood-paneled ceiling, ceiling fan lighting, and dual-pane sliding doors with internal blinds that lead to the backyard. Ideal as a dining area, playroom, game room, or creative flex space, this room is both functional and full of charm. Both bathrooms have been tastefully upgraded with new vanities, stylish fixtures, a Bluetooth-enabled vent fan, and a special-order oversized Kohler tub/shower combo. The main bathroom also includes a custom-built pocket toilet room for added privacy. Comfort is ensured year-round with Milgard dual-pane windows and smart, energy-efficient mini-split systems-featuring a 24K BTU unit for the main living areas and three 9K BTU units in the bedrooms and office. Additional upgrades include recessed LED lighting, all-new interior doors, trim, baseboards, a Takagi tankless water heater, and updated PEX/PVC plumbing for peace of mind. The private backyard is a retreat of its own, boasting low-maintenance turf, a new patio slab, ambient LED string lighting, a new retaining wall with improved drainage, mature fruit trees, and a children's playground. An enclosed former carport with a gated fence provides additional outdoor space, with the option to convert it back if desired. Fully fenced front and back yards offer privacy, flexibility, and lifestyle appeal. This rare blend of style, comfort, and location makes it a true gem in one of Fallbrook's most walkable neighborhoods.
