Unfortunately, this is not an uncommon position for sellers in Santa Maria CA.

Santa Maria CA Gated Townhome Communities, Arborwalk & Lavigna

01/07/2009
Santa Maria

Built in 2004 and 2005, Arborwalk is located at the intersection of Miller & McCoy in the heart of "New" Santa Maria. This gated development is close to shopping, banks, and restaurants and it offers a fitness trail, greenbelt basin, and rose gardens throughout. Once you drive home you truly don't need your car; you can get out and walk to everything; units in this development earn high "walkability" scores. These detached town homes are excellent for buyers who don't want the obligations of yard work but still need a little outdoor space for their pet and/or a BBQ grill. Also, these homes are fantastic for investors who plan to market a rental to nearby Vandenberg Air Force Base. Arborwalk is tremendously attractive to potential renters as it sits adjacent to grocery stores, coffee shops, and restaurants.
