    Pool and pondWalking pathsLocked outer doorsWood-burning fireplace
    Affordable Westminster Condo Opportunity! This is a gem to be found on the top floor (3rd floor) of a condo ideally located near fabulous restaurants and stores, public transportation and I-25. Unlike neighboring units, the heavy lifting here is already done: the popcorn ceilings (and their asbestos) have been professionally removed, and new windows were installed in 2020 to keep your energy bills low. Inside, you’ll find a spacious, open-concept kitchen and dining area—definitely not a "two-butt kitchen"—perfect for those who like to cook and host. A new dishwasher was added in 2022. The overall layout feels spacious, featuring an upgraded laundry room with a stacked washer/dryer and smart built-in storage in both bedrooms. You will certainly enjoy the balcony overlooking a lush, tree-filled courtyard and mountain peaks visible in the distance. It also has some cozy features with its wood-burning fireplace and not having noisy neighbors and obviously no one above you! The building also has locked outer doors and you can see your assigned parking spot from your hexagonal window in your master bedroom. Enjoy the community's large shade trees, walking paths, pool and pond. This is an affordable, honest home ready for a buyer who wants to stop renting and start owning. Welcome home.
