This 2,032 sq. ft. popular floor model has 2 bedrooms,1 3/4 bath, a den/office and a great room/dining area that could be on the cover of Architectural Digest. It is in move-in condition with plantation shutters, designer light fixtures, and most of the furniture available outside of escrow. The large kitchen has an eating area that has views of the snow capped mountains. The front patio and back patios have beautiful stone fountains that provide soothing background noise. Having coffee and looking at the beautiful views of the mountains while having the meditative fountains for sound is truly unique in Sun City, which is a place where people are on the go to the 60 groups, the bocce ball courts, the tennis, paddle, and pickle ball courts, bicycling, the 3 clubhouses with pools, spas, 2 golf courses, movies, restaurants, and exercise. If you want to feel young again this is the place to move...it's like being at camp when you were a kid. New buyers to pay a 6 month Reserve Replenishment fee to the HOA of $1883.
