A classic condominium complex in the heart of Tallahassee's University District

With 50 units, this gated community offers a blend of convenience and comfort for those seeking proximity to Florida State University's campus. The building's straightforward design focuses on functionality, providing residents with a practical living space in a prime location.

Compact one-bedroom units and spacious four-bedroom options

Seminole Legends Condominiums offers a range of floor plans to suit various needs. The one-bedroom units, ideal for students or young professionals, span from 490 to 980 square feet. These compact spaces are efficiently designed with one bathroom and are priced affordably between $110,000 and $115,000. For those requiring more space, the complex also features expansive four-bedroom units. These larger apartments, measuring approximately 2,000 square feet, come equipped with four bathrooms, providing ample room for families or groups of students. All units in the complex benefit from modern amenities, including air conditioning, dishwashers, and microwaves, ensuring comfortable living. The kitchens in many units have been updated with neutral ceramic tile throughout and modern fixtures, creating a fresh and inviting atmosphere. Large windows allow for natural light, while some units may offer views of the iconic Doak Campbell Stadium, home to the Florida State Seminoles football team. This unique feature allows residents to experience the excitement of game days from the comfort of their own homes.

Community-focused amenities for a comfortable lifestyle

Seminole Legends Condominiums provides a selection of shared amenities designed to enhance residents' daily lives. The centerpiece of the community is the private swimming pool, offering a refreshing retreat during Florida's warm months. Adjacent to the pool, a covered picnic area serves as a perfect spot for outdoor gatherings and social events. For added convenience, the complex features a community laundry facility, eliminating the need for in-unit washers and dryers. The property is gated, providing an extra layer of security for residents. On-site management ensures that the property is well-maintained and that residents' needs are promptly addressed. The complex also features a sundeck, ideal for sunbathing or enjoying outdoor relaxation. These amenities collectively create a comfortable and low-maintenance lifestyle, particularly appealing to students and young professionals in the area.
