What You're Looking At

Three levels of space, one flight from the freeway.

Set inside Riviera Del Sol in Otay Mesa, 4538 Northern Moon Way runs 1,428 square feet over a three-bedroom, three-bath townhome plan - living downstairs, sleeping upstairs, and a garage that does more than hold cars.

What sets this one apart is how recently it was brought current. Luxury vinyl plank runs wall to wall, the kitchen was rebuilt with white cabinetry and quartz-style counters, and each bathroom carries the same black-hardware finish for a consistent look floor to floor. The gas range, built-in microwave, refrigerator, and a full-size washer and dryer all convey - nothing to source or install after keys change hands.

For a buyer, that translates to a shorter to-do list: no floors to replace, no kitchen to gut, no first-weekend projects competing with the move itself.

Recently brought current

Floors, kitchen, and all three baths were updated together, so the finishes read as one cohesive remodel rather than a patchwork - and there's nothing pressing to redo.

Living on one open floor

Kitchen and living space share a single light-filled level, and a private balcony extends that room outdoors without leaving the unit.

Bedrooms kept upstairs

All three bedrooms sit above the living areas - a layout that keeps sleeping space quiet and separate - each with a ceiling fan and real closet room.

A garage that earns its keep

The two-car tandem bay covers two vehicles and still leaves depth for bikes, boards, tools, or holiday bins - a genuine rarity at this San Diego price point.

The Community

Riviera Del Sol keeps the weekends yours.

Step out the door and the community park is right there - the piece of Riviera Del Sol that most defines day-to-day life here, with the HOA handling exteriors and grounds.

Shared amenities include a splash pad, playgrounds, a basketball court, and open green lawns for walking and recreation. Because the HOA maintains the grounds and building exteriors, weekend upkeep is minimal compared with a detached home.

Buyers should confirm current HOA dues and what they cover as part of due diligence, since those figures factor directly into monthly cost.

The Neighborhood

South Bay, with the freeways doing the heavy lifting.

Otay Mesa reads as one of San Diego's more connected corners: the 805 and 905 are minutes off, the border is close, and commercial development keeps rolling into the surrounding blocks.

Everyday shopping is close: Las Americas Premium Outlets is a short drive, and several plazas with supermarkets, pharmacies, and restaurants sit minutes away. The area is also known for some of the region's most celebrated Mexican dining, alongside a broad mix of other cuisines.

Before You Offer

Numbers worth running first.

2-3%
A common range for closing costs as a share of purchase price - budget for these on top of the down payment.
HOA
Monthly dues factor into your true carrying cost. Confirm the current amount and what it covers before offering.
Pre-Approval
A lender pre-approval before touring shows sellers you're a serious, qualified buyer - often decisive in a tight market.

Percentages shown are general guidance, not a quote. Your actual closing costs, HOA dues, and financing terms will vary - confirm with your lender and agent.

Buyer FAQ

Questions buyers ask about this home.

Is the home move-in ready, or does it need work?
The main updates are already done - luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, a remodeled kitchen, refreshed bathrooms, and included stainless appliances plus an in-unit washer and dryer. A standard inspection is still recommended, but there's no renovation required to occupy the home.
What does the tandem garage actually fit?
It's a two-car tandem layout - two vehicles parked front-to-back under cover - with additional room for storage such as bikes, boards, tools, or seasonal items. Covered two-car parking is relatively uncommon in this price range in San Diego.
Are there HOA dues, and what do they cover?
Riviera Del Sol is an HOA community, and dues typically cover exterior maintenance, landscaping, and shared amenities like the park, splash pad, and courts. Confirm the exact current dues and coverage during your review - they affect your monthly carrying cost.
Could this property work with VA financing?
Homes in this price range and condition are often candidates for VA loans, but eligibility depends on the buyer's qualification, the lender, and the property meeting VA requirements. If you're using a VA loan, we can connect you with local lenders to confirm the specifics.
How do I see the home in person?
Reach out to Justin Verdugo to arrange a private showing at a time that works for you. Getting pre-approved with a lender beforehand is worthwhile, so you're ready to move if the home is a fit.
