Peaceful, carefree, easy - all words to describe how much ‘home’ is in this condo! From the moment you arrive, you will be amazed at the space, natural light and privacy provided by being on a cul-de-sac and serene pond in your backyard! A perfect flow to entertain from the living room to the dining room, both are just off the kitchen. Walk through the kitchen to yet another space, perfect for a more connected eating space. Make sure to step onto the 3-season porch which is the perfect space to start your day! Main level living continues with a large primary suite that sits at the back of the condo so you can enjoy the pond view! There is a second bedroom on the main level but they didn’t skimp on space, it measures roughly 13’x11’ (check out the floor plans provided!) With all the main level has to offer, the walk-out lower level just adds to that value. A multipurpose room, bedroom, full bath and tons of storage - this home provides so much - and you don’t have to shovel!
