If you like the idea of living in a small community where people actually use the outdoor space, read this. This is a well maintained townhouse in a 16 unit setting that feels calm, organized, and easy to come home to. Step inside and you immediately see why the layout works. The living room, dining area, and kitchen connect in one clean, open flow, with large windows that bring in natural light and keep the space bright through the day. The kitchen delivers what matters now, not someday. Stove, microwave, and dishwasher are about one year old. Recessed lighting is about one year old. Vinyl flooring is about one year old. The result is simple, fresh, and low drama, the kind of update you enjoy every day without thinking about it. Upstairs, the bedrooms are well sized and arranged with purpose. The primary suite has ample closet space, a well appointed bathroom with a new bathtub and shower, and a private covered balcony that gives you a quiet place to start the morning or end the evening. The additional bedroom gives you options for guests, office space, hobbies, or storage, depending on what you want your home to do for you. You also get the practical comforts that keep life moving.
