Welcome to 1281 California Ave #3, a fully renovated and redesigned 2bd/1ba home offering the feel of modern new construction with the charm of its original cottage style feel. Taken down to the studs and reimagined, this former home now features new exterior siding and trims, new windows, a new asphalt shingle roof, hurricane clips, full drywall, updated plumbing, and new electrical - essentially creating a modern home. The open-concept living area flows into a brand-new kitchen with stainless steel appliances, tile backsplash, new cabinetry, quartz countertops, and recessed lighting. Warm wood vinyl flooring runs throughout. The fully redesigned and renovated bathroom and large bedroom closets complete the interior. A new sliding door opens to a deck and fully fenced yard, plus a covered rear lanai for added living space. The enclosed two-car carport fits two full-size vehicles with room for storage. Set back from the street as the rear home down a private driveway, this property enjoys added privacy and a peaceful setting. No maintenance fees and an exceptional value in Wahiawa.
