Same family. Thirty years. And they left it better than they found it. This 3BD/2.5BA townhome sits in the gated Shinglewood Ct community — a quiet, tree-lined 16-unit enclave in Union City's Alvarado neighborhood that rarely turns over. And within that community, this unit is genuinely one of a kind: it's the only home with its own private exterior gate, the only one with air conditioning, and one of just two three-bedroom floor plans in the entire complex. At roughly 1,600 sq ft, it's been fully refreshed top to bottom — brand-new kitchen, remodeled bathrooms, fresh paint throughout, and professionally cleaned carpets. Step out back, and it's done for you: a fully landscaped, no-maintenance yard that stays green year-round, plus a storage shed for everything that doesn't have a home inside. Attached garage, central A/C, private gated entry. The lowest HOA fees in the entire city, and it takes care of maintenance, landscaping, and water. Nothing left to do but move in. The location carries the rest. Union Landing and Union Square Marketplace cover shopping and dining, and Central Park, Alvarado Park, and the Alameda Creek Regional Trail are all close when you want out of the house. Zoned for New Haven Unified, including the Mandarin immersion program at Emanuele Elementary, this home is right across the street from Alvarado Elementary. — a real draw at this price point.
