    Why rent when you can own? With special financing available, qualified buyers may be able to purchase this home with $0 down payment. Lovely 2-bedroom townhome in the desirable Wheatleys Pond community. This home features an open and comfortable floor plan and offers more space where it matters most: the bedrooms. Unlike typical 3-bedroom layouts, this home has the same overall square footage but with two oversized bedrooms—providing ample room for full bedroom suites and generous furnishings. Enjoy two decks with beautiful water views of the community pond—one on the first floor and another off the second bedroom upstairs. Numerous recent upgrades include new luxury vinyl plank flooring (2020), brand-new carpet (2025), a new first-floor deck (2025), and a brand-new roof (2025) with a 20-year warranty on materials and a 10-year warranty on workmanship. The full walkout basement offers plenty of potential and is ready to be finished to suit your needs. A rare opportunity for peaceful living with water views of the community pond in a convenient location. Ask how you could move in with no money out of pocket!
