Welcome to 1708 Lexington, a modern condo that feels easy the moment you step inside. Just one block from Del Norte BART and the Ohlone Greenway, it’s surprising how quickly you’ll feel tucked away and right at home. That sense of ease continues as a modern, open floor plan unfolds. At the center of the home, the remodeled kitchen is both luxurious and functional, with an oversized island that invites gathering, projects, and everyday rituals. The spa-like bathroom adds to the feeling of calm, while built-in closet systems throughout keep everything feeling orderly and uncluttered. In-unit laundry and a dishwasher make daily routines feel simple. Two comfortable bedrooms enjoy gentle morning light and a sense of separation from the main living space. That feeling of retreat carries outdoors, where a private patio offers space for fresh air or a quiet reset. Redwood trees flank the charming wood-shingled building, adding a layer of calm within the urban setting. The unit includes parking in a lower-level garage, additional private storage, and access to a shared outdoor common area, perfect for casual entertaining or a friendly hello with neighbors.
