About This Home

As of January 2020

You'll love the setting and layout of this beautifully updated condo. The view of the mountains and private courtyard upon entry set the stage. The large living room features fabulous built-in bookshelves and storage. The remodeled kitchen has granite counters and custom cabinetry. Both bathrooms have been updated including a fully renovated master bathroom with marble surfaces. Updated windows. The fabulous private central courtyard can be accessed through three different sets of dual-pane sliding glass doors. Leaving those doors open adds to the versatility of this sunny space. New carpet and paint. In-unit laundry. Dedicated 2-car carport.
