About the property

Townhome with Two Balconies, Pool Access & Walkable Vista Location

This two-story townhome on Silver Drive delivers a rare blend of privacy, community amenities and coastal convenience. Inside, the 1,365-square-foot layout places the primary suite upstairs with a walk-in closet and its own balcony — a quiet perch with views over the neighborhood. The living room opens to a second balcony that extends your entertaining space and captures the same outlook. A functional half-bath downstairs plus two additional upstairs bedrooms make the floorplan flexible for families, WFH setups, or a guest suite.

Practical upgrades include recently replaced windows that reduce exterior noise and improve comfort. The living room centers on a wood-burning fireplace that anchors the main gathering area and creates a warm atmosphere for cooler evenings. The kitchen and utility areas are offered with appliances and the washer/dryer — all to convey — so you can move in without delay. Outside your front door is a small patio that opens to an HOA-maintained grass area, adding a light, landscaped buffer and a safer outdoor spot for pets or kids.

The community is a major lifestyle asset: residents benefit from multiple pools (one within walking distance), a hot tub, clubhouse and sauna, plus security patrol for added peace of mind. Parking is surface/assigned (no attached garage is shown in MLS) — please confirm your assigned stall with the listing agent. Located minutes from Downtown Vista’s weekly farmers market and roughly 15 minutes from Oceanside and Carlsbad beaches, this home is an easy base for beach days and local dining.

If you want a low-maintenance home with community recreation, two outdoor living areas and quick coastal access, schedule a showing. The property is competitively priced for the product type and ready for immediate occupancy pending standard inspections.

Editorial market perspective

Vista and neighboring North County beach cities continue to attract buyers seeking lower-maintenance ownership within commuting distance to coastal job centers. Townhomes and condos in the $500K–$700K band remain in demand from first-time buyers, downsizers, and investors targeting rental demand near the coast. Inventory has been moderate; well-priced, clean turnkey units with amenities (pool/clubhouse) typically see faster activity than outdated or poorly presented units. This unit's combination of two balconies, included appliances, and proximity to beaches and Downtown Vista positions it as an appealing value relative to detached homes. Verify HOA dues and parking assignment to assess carrying costs and tenant potential.
