Cardiff By The Sea homes for sale in Park Place twin homes
Park Place homes for sale in Cardiff-By-The-Sea. The word is out folks, living in a smaller more efficient home surrounded by nature, and right up the hill from the beach comes very close to being called what many Cardiff By The Sea home owners and residents call ‘perfect.’ Park Place twin homes offer perhaps the ‘perfect’ combination of thoughtful floor plans, manageable back yards, mostly one story living and dynamic common areas.
What is a Park Place twin home? A twin home is essentially two homes that share one wall that runs that typically runs the length of the home. Perhaps the biggest untapped asset of buying a Park Place twin homes is that oftentimes untouched front yard that in fact offers many home buyers the perfect opportunity to capture more space and enhance their indoor to outdoor living space.
Park Place town homes PROS
-thoughtful open floor plans with excellent yard access
-generous front and back yards that allow creative control of design and landscaping (make it your own)
-less square feet means less utility costs
-literally a dog owners paradise with over 20 acres of dedicated park space
-one of the finest Home Owners Association spaces in all of North County Coastal San Diego
-walkable to Ada Harris Elementary School and their playing field and playground (open to the public)
-walkable to San Dieguito Academy public high school
-walkable to Mexican food (and the best $.99 fish taco in Cardiff By The Sea at El Pueblo Mexican Food).
-walkable to Cardiff Sports Park: softball, baseball, football, soccer, basketball, playground, plenty of parking
Park Place town homes CONS:
-shared wall (occasional noise issues)
-shared roof (when and if you need to eradicate termites and pay for a fumigation tenting, you need to get your twin home neighbor on board to allow the tent to cover both homes)
-dense street parking (many owners don’t park their cars in their garages)
-some settlement issues in some tracts in Park Place (did I mention my experience of representing both Buyers and Sellers in Park Place can save you thousands if not tens of thousands of dollars? Please remember that it doesn’t cost a dollar more to hire the best).
Now wait a minute, aren't these twin homes?
Many Cardiff By The Sea home owners are unaware of the difference between twin homes and town homes. As the number 1 Buyers and Sellers agent in Park Place and the only third generation real estate broker in Cardiff By The Sea, let me share some wisdom with you after 16 years of representing Cardiff By The Sea home buyers and sellers.
A Park Place town home is not officially a twin home although physically, these are ‘twin homes’ in that there are two Park Place homes sharing a mutual wall that divides the single structure into two homes. If there was no Home Owners Association with common areas that needed to be managed, such as in Pacific Serena homes for sale in coastal Encinitas, these homes would be called twin homes BUT since there is a Park Place Home Owners Association that presides over this community, the twin homes are officially called town homes. Fortunately owning a town home in Park Place is very similar to owning a a fully detached house except you just share one common wall with your neighbor. The Park Place Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&R’s) allow for the town home owner to conduct repairs and renovations with a minimal amount of HOA regulatory oversight, though some does exist.
When it comes to buying a condo, a town home, or a twin home, there is not a single aphorism more relevant than “the devil is in the details.” This is the number one reason to seek out a Buyer’s agent who has represented multiple buyers and sellers within the Park Place community. Having sold numerous homes in Park Place over the years I quickly developed an expertise on where the problem areas are within this community and how to protect Buyers from getting to excited about a home that may be semi-permanently flawed.
Do yourself a massive favor, call or email me to set-up a no-obligation 30 minute or one hour driving tour of Park Place the other eight ‘like-kind’ condo and town home developments nearby. Likely, you’ll learn more about Park Place and the other ‘like kind’ communities in 30 minutes with me than you have spending months on the internet. I strive to do one thing- create value and a competitive advantage for those that place their trust and confidence in me as their real estate advocate with the hopes that my exemplary representation would allow you to easily recommend my services as the #1 Cardiff By The Sea real estate agent to your loved ones and admirers. I am THE passionate curator of coastal living.
