This top floor corner unit features 2 beds, 2 baths and approximately 1440 sq ft. 3A was updated in 2017 by sellers who did it for their own enjoyment and not just a quick flip. The unit was remodeled to include an in unit washer/dryer, beautiful multi-shade brown engineered hardwood flooring, all new lighting fixtures, solid wood 6-panel doors, Google Nest temperature control for heat, 3 wall a/c units (two new that can be controlled by WIFI) and more. The upgraded kitchen features new Java shaker cabinetry with soft close doors and drawers, granite counters and all new finger resistant SS appliances. The 2 full bathrooms have also been given a spa like facelift to include new tiling on floor and shower/tub wall, vanity, mirror, toilet and fixtures/hardware.

If needed laundry facilities located on main floor. Numerous HOA condo building updates have recently been done to include security cameras accessible via app, intercom to let guests in via phone, Fall 2002 (tuckpointing, new fence, replaced storm sewers), 2023 (repaved parking area, remediation of support columns in parking area, refinished driveways, concrete aprons and front sidewalk). As you can see there is nothing to do but move in and fall in love with your new pride of ownership.
