About This Home
As of March 2022Imagine living in one of the most vibrant neighborhoods in the city, within two blocks of the beach and walking distance to all the trendy bars and restaurants as well as life's amenities (e.g., grocery stores, fresh produce market). Add to that a large open floor plan with high ceilings and tons of natural light. The updated kitchen with a garbage disposal, dishwasher, and stainless steel appliances flows nicely into the large living space, which is perfect for entertaining. The gas fireplace provides a warm and inviting ambience. The alcove in the entry way is spacious and could easily serve as a work from home space. The renovated bathroom contains a beautifully tiled shower with glass door. The unit has central AC, brand new washer and dryer, ceiling fans, and tons of storage. It doesn’t get much better than this unit. Stop by the Open House on Saturday and Sunday to be the first to see this gorgeous unit.
