Each residence offers 2 spacious bedrooms and 1 fully renovated bathroom, with its own private entrance and private yard space, creating a sense of separation, privacy, and comfort. Inside, the homes have been fully remodeled with tasteful, modern finishes. Thoughtful upgrades throughout include all-new flooring, dual-pane windows, and brand-new electrical panels and plumbing lines. The kitchens have been fully redesigned with sleek, modern thin shaker cabinets, elegant quartz countertops, and new stainless steel appliances. Stylishly updated bathrooms and tasteful finishes complete the interiors, ensuring comfort and quality throughout. No detail was overlooked.
