SUNNY CORNER-UNIT TOWNHOUSE style condo in Emerald Gardens with the space, privacy and easy living you expect ! Southwest-facing and filled with natural light, this unique two-level home features 9-foot ceilings, large windows and pleasant views toward the Prospect Park neighborhood. A private entrance along the internal driveway makes coming and going especially convenient—including for dog owners. First-floor units allow up to two dogs with a combined weight of 100 lbs., with no individual dog exceeding 70 lbs. Includes one assigned parking space in the heated garage plus additional private storage space in the garage.
The open-concept main level is bright and spacious, with bamboo flooring flowing through the living and dining areas. Ceramic tile complements the entry, kitchen and half bath. The kitchen features a new stainless-steel refrigerator, and a pass through to the open dining/living area.
