    What's special

    Quartz countersGleaming hardwoodsAbundant lightCarpeted bedroomHall bathTwo-tone cabinetsSliders to the deck
    Newly updated (!) this town home will delight! All four levels are freshly painted and the lighting has been modernized throughout the home. The kitchen features two-tone cabinets (white uppers and slate blue lowers), and brand new stainless appliances and quartz counters (with new, deep sink and faucet). The wall across the breakfast nook is painted to match the lower cabinets and is adorned with black, floating shelves. The overall look is sleek and bright, given abundant light brought in from the sliders to the deck. There’s a pass-through to the dining room which in turn is open to the living room. Light from the bay window at the far end of the space shows off the gleaming hardwoods. *** On the upper level is a carpeted bedroom with hall bath, and the primary bedroom with hardwoods has a newly updated and stylish en-suite bathroom. The third bedroom is one level up with another en-suite bath for convenience! *** On the entry level is a rec room (or office) with gas fireplace, laundry/utility room, access to the front door and also to the one-car garage. *** The roof was replaced in 2020; some new windows were installed in 2014, and the remainder in 2021. *** It’s hard to beat the location for convenience! Summers Grove is across from the Van Dorn Metro station kiss & ride with easy on/off I-495 and good proximity to I-395. With one garage space and one reserved surface space, parking is easy. Plus, the community will issue two parking passes for guests. Loads of shopping is just a few minute’s drive away. Make this fresh, move-in-ready and lovely home yours!
