Agent Description

If you’ve been looking for something close to downtown but still want a little space and a quieter feel—this one is worth seeing. This 2-bedroom, 2.5 bath condo with 1,479 sqft has been really well taken care of and thoughtfully updated throughout. As soon as you walk in, it feels light, open, and easy to live in. You’ve got wood floors through the main living areas and stairs, fresh paint, and updated lighting that gives it a clean, modern vibe without feeling overdone. The kitchen is one of my favorite parts of the home. It’s set up in a way that actually works for everyday life but also makes it great for hosting. You’ve got new stainless appliances, updated backsplash, a modern faucet, and a butcher block island that was added for extra prep space and storage, plus pendant lighting that ties it all together. The layout works really well—each bedroom has access to its own bathroom, which is perfect if you have guests, roommates, or just want a little separation. The primary suite feels like a true retreat with a fully remodeled shower, updated tile, granite counters, and modern black fixtures. The other bathrooms have also been updated to match, so everything feels consistent and move-in ready. New HVAC with a smart thermostat (2025), Ring doorbell, alarm system, updated stair railing, new carpet upstairs, and washer/dryer + fridge that all stay. You also get a private balcony to step outside and a 2-car garage, which is honestly hard to find this close to downtown. Location-wise, you’re just minutes from downtown, South Congress, and some of the best local spots for coffee and food. It’s a great option for someone who wants to be close to everything without being right in the middle of it. If you’re looking for something low-maintenance, updated, and in a really solid location—this one checks a lot of boxes.
