Offered for the󠃳󠂠󠂀󠂠󠃢󠂁󠂢󠃢󠂁󠂣󠃢󠂁󠂣󠃍󠂏󠃍󠂏 first time since 2000. This upper level condo in Villa Serena comes with something most El Cajon condos at this price do not have: a private one car garage with a roll up door, plus a second assigned parking space. The kitchen has been updated with white quartz counters, stainless steel appliances, a deep single basin sink, and a window above the sink. Wood style flooring runs through the living area and the bedroom. A corner stone fireplace anchors the living room, and the slider opens to a covered balcony above the interior greenbelt and its mature crape myrtles. The bedroom is generous for the floor plan, with a ceiling fan and a treetop view. The bath has a tub and shower combination with a cultured marble vanity. Once you are inside, everything is on one level. Villa Serena covers just over two acres of landscaped grounds with wide walking paths, lawn, boulder accents, and an on site laundry room. Chase Avenue Elementary is 0.2 miles away. Cajon Valley Middle and Grossmont High are each about 1.3 miles (Cajon Valley Union and Grossmont Union districts, per public records). Parkway Plaza, downtown El Cajon, and the 8 and 67 freeways are all minutes out. Held by the same family for over 26 years.
