Beautiful 3BR Townhouse in Prime San Elijo Hills with Private Yard & Fruit Trees!

Located in a small and coveted subdivision, this spacious 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom townhouse is now available for rent. With 1410 square feet of living space, this property offers comfortable living in a convenient and desirable location.

Designed for both relaxation and entertaining, the main level features an open-concept flow connecting the living room, dining area, and a fully equipped kitchen with abundant cabinet storage. Large windows throughout fill the space with natural warm light.

Upstairs, you'll find all three bedrooms, complete with plush carpeting and generous closet space. The private master suite features an en-suite bathroom with a double vanity and a relaxing soaking tub. The two additional bedrooms share a well-maintained full bathroom with a shower/tub combo.

Step Outside: Unlike many townhouses, this property boasts a private yard complete with mature fruit trees and your very own avocado tree ideal for morning coffee, weekend relaxing, or gardening.

Unbeatable Location: One of the best things about this property is its location. The subdivision offers easy access to great trails for morning walks or runs, and it's just a short walk to schools, parks, and downtown San Elijo.

Additional Highlights:
Central A/C and heating
In-unit washer and dryer
Two separate 1-car garages (great for parking, storage, etc..)

Don't miss the opportunity to live in this highly desirable neighborhood.
