About This Home

As of June 2013

Lovely upper level condo w/pool view! Light & bright w/high vaulted ceilings. HW floors downstairs, cozy carpeting upstairs. Granite kitchen counters. Desirable location, walk/bike/run to Cal Ave restaurants, shops and Farmers' Market. Apparently close to proposed new "tech corridor" which will be "filled with startups and incubators." Great investment opp for any homeowner. Fabulous PA schools!
