This 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom townhome at 7546 Romeria St in Carlsbad, CA 92009 offers 1,738 square feet in the sought-after La Costa neighborhood, built in 2003 with a rare downstairs bedroom and full bathroom that few entry-level Carlsbad townhomes can match. If you're a first-time buyer trying to break into the Carlsbad market without sacrificing square footage or schools, this Meadowview Townhomes property puts you five minutes from I-5 with monthly HOA dues of just $245 covering all grounds maintenance.

Upstairs, the primary suite delivers vaulted ceilings and a private balcony overlooking canyon views, while the main living area opens to its own full balcony, giving you two separate outdoor retreats in a townhome footprint. The home includes dual-zone air conditioning, natural gas heat, gas-and-electric dryer hookups, and a refrigerator, washer, and dryer that convey with the sale, real cost savings for a buyer furnishing a first home.
