You’ve got to see this bright, airy, and thoughtfully designed condo. Admire the manicured grounds, they’re a delight walking to and from the front door. A new refrigerator, stove/oven, and dishwasher were purchased in February of this year, and in 2025 a new hot water heater, LG washer and dryer, and attic ladder were all installed as well. The luxury vinyl floors and carpet have both been carefully maintained. The back patio is perfect for eating dinner on one of those long summers' evenings, and when the sun goes down and the air cools off, imagine cozying up by the beautiful fireplace. The location is superb, within around a quarter mile you will find Contra Costa Cinema, Nob Hill Foods, CVS, Starbucks, other restaurants, a gym, and a brand-new Tesla Supercharger. You don’t want to miss out on this lovely home!
