Tucked within the serene, gated community of Bridges at Escala in the heart of Mission Valley, this bright and spacious townhome offers the perfect blend of comfort, function, and lifestyle. Large windows fill the home with natural light, creating a warm and inviting feel from the moment you step inside. The main living area is both open and welcoming, centered around a tiled fireplace and a sliding door that leads to a private balcony, the perfect spot to enjoy a quiet morning or unwind at the end of the day. Just beyond, the kitchen is thoughtfully connected to the living space and features a built in microwave, tile countertops, and a double sink set beneath a large window, bringing in even more natural light. Also on the main living level is a guest bedroom and full bathroom, offering flexibility for visitors, a home office, or multigenerational living. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite serves as a peaceful retreat with its own ensuite bath featuring a double vanity, tiled countertops, and a shower/tub combination. A second upstairs bedroom also enjoys the privacy of its own ensuite bathroom, making the layout ideal for both everyday living and hosting guests. The home is complete with an attached oversized two-car garage, full-sized laundry, and a utility sink, along with valuable upgrades including recently installed HVAC and heat pump in 2023, a leased solar system, reverse osmosis system, and home network wiring installed in 2022. Beyond the home, The Bridges at Escala offers a beautifully maintained, resort-like setting with lush greenery and exceptional amenities including a pool, spa, tennis courts, kid's playground, dog park, BBQ area, clubhouse, and gym. All of this in a prime Mission Valley location, within walking distance to Snapdragon Stadium and Park, with easy access to the San Diego Trolley, Costco, IKEA, restaurants, shopping, and more.
