About this property

Step into your forever home in Lake Balboa, a gated property filled with natural light, featuring skylights, a waterfall quartz island, and a vaulted primary suite. A remote operated black iron gate opens to a wide driveway for about three vehicles. A brick herringbone porch welcomes you inside. The open concept layout has updated flooring in the living areas and bedrooms, recessed lighting throughout, and central air conditioning. The kitchen is made for entertaining, with a gas cooktop, island hood vent, farmhouse sink, shaker cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and a walk in pantry. The primary suite features a fireplace, two closets, and a bathroom with a new dual vanity and a skylight over the shower. The second bathroom is fully renovated and features a walk in shower with a sleek, fixed single glass panel. The laundry area has cabinets above and below. The washer and dryer are included. The converted garage adds flexible space with flooring, recessed lighting, and central air, and the original garage door remains (unpermitted conversion, not included in the stated living SqFt). Outside, lush St. Augustine lawns enhance both the front and backyard, while ficus hedges with drip irrigation complement the front landscaping. A guava tree grows in front and a growing avocado tree in back, and a paver patio sits off the living room. Roughly a mile from Lake Balboa Park, with Louise Park and neighborhood cafes even closer, this move in ready home delivers style, comfort, and value in the heart of Lake Balboa.

Loan assumptions and ownership costs

Blank costs are excluded, not confirmed to be zero. Get taxes, insurance and HOA estimates for this property; prior-owner taxes may change after purchase. Mortgage insurance depends on your loan—ask your lender.

Enter your rate and costs, then calculate.

Illustration only—not a rate quote, preapproval, lending offer or affordability determination. Assumes equal monthly payments on a fully amortizing fixed-rate loan; no adjustable rates, interest-only periods or balloon payments. Excludes closing costs, utilities, maintenance, special assessments and other unentered costs. Actual payments and escrow can differ. Review a Loan Estimate with your lender.
