This is the math that wins in North County: Secure the 92009 zip code and walk-to-school access to La Costa Meadows Elementary (GreatSchools 9/10, top 11% statewide) for half the cost of the $1.6M+ single-family homes on the surrounding streets. While comparable rentals in La Costa run $4,500/month, this property allows you to control your housing costs and build equity. This is not a typical condo; it is a townhome structure with no neighbors above or below you, offering the privacy of a detached house. Held by the original owners for over 40 years, the property stands as a "cosmetic time capsule"—pristine and well-built, but positioned for immediate value capture through cosmetic updates. With renovated units in this area selling for significantly more, smart buyers will see the equity potential in simple surface improvements. The layout is engineered for real life. A dedicated foyer leads to a social main level with a fireplace, while the upstairs configuration places the primary suite—complete with its own second fireplace and large closet—away from the secondary bedrooms. You get the separation a growing family needs or the quiet a work-from-home professional demands. The lifestyle here is "Downsize without Downgrading." The $627 HOA creates a true lock-and-leave environment, covering the roof (approx. 2 yrs old), exterior maintenance, water, insurance, and resort-style amenities (pools, tennis). While your neighbors spend weekends managing landscapers, you have a private, fenced 300+ sq. ft. patio and a two-car garage for your EVs and surfboards. Inventory in this complex is historically scarce. Schedule your private viewing to verify the numbers today.
