Extensive Modern Renovations: The home boasts recent and comprehensive upgrades including new interior/exterior paint, luxury vinyl plank flooring, recessed lighting, dual-pane windows, and an updated kitchen with new quartz countertops, sink, gas range, and dishwasher, offering a move-in ready experience.
Key System Upgrades & Comfort: Equipped with central A/C, copper plumbing, and ceiling fans, ensuring year-round comfort and reduced maintenance concerns. An inviting gas fireplace adds to the home's appeal.
Luxurious Primary Suite: The spacious primary suite features a large bathroom complete with a jacuzzi tub and a separate shower, providing a private and relaxing retreat.
Ample Parking & Storage: A gated long driveway and detached garage offer generous parking for multiple vehicles, including space for a boat or RV. The garage also includes built-in storage cabinets and a separate storage area.
Desirable Community & Location Perks: Situated less than a mile from the new Odyssey STEM Academy and close to local amenities, parks, and shopping. Residents have the optional benefit of accessing the Lakewood Gardens clubhouse and pool for a low annual fee with no mandatory HOA.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1294, other record living area = 1134.
No Scenic Views: The property explicitly states 'None' for views, which may be a drawback for buyers prioritizing scenic or panoramic outlooks.
Detached Garage: While offering ample storage and parking, the garage is detached, which some buyers might find less convenient than an attached garage for direct home access, especially in inclement weather.
High School District Performance: The property falls within the Paramount Unified High School District, which includes schools with average ratings (e.g., Paramount High rated 5), potentially being a consideration for families seeking top-tier public high school education.
