Property Description
Priced to Update and Full of Personality - Welcome to this 3-bedroom, 2-bath townhome condominium in the heart of Clairemont. At 1,766 sq ft across two levels, the layout is functional, the light is great, and the retro 70's charm is very much intentional. The entry level opens to a spacious living room that flows into the kitchen, complete with a double oven tower and a window overlooking the patio - a little inspiration for the update ahead. Step down to the split-level family room with vaulted wood ceilings, a corner fireplace, and those signature retro railings. Also on this level: a bedroom, an updated bath with tiled shower, and a dedicated laundry area. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath. New carpet, fresh paint, and tile flooring mean the heavy lifting is done - just bring your vision to the kitchen and enjoy the vibe. Out back, a private brick patio gives you room to entertain without the neighbors in your business. A two-car carport with generous storage and direct entry into the home rounds out the package nicely.
Pacific Bluff HOA brings the resort life: Olympic-sized lap pool, kiddie pool, pickleball and basketball courts, playground, clubhouse with game room, full gym, and more. Ideally located with easy access to the 805 and 5, and just a short drive to the coast, downtown, and La Jolla. *HOA includes the assessment for required upgrades.
