Read the full listing description
This one floor ranch-style end unit in the very popular and well-run Leefair Condo Complex has been elegantly remodeled throughout w/the highest quality. The owner's exquisite taste is evident from the time you enter the driveway w/its coveted two-car attached garage and walk into the lovely foyer. The living room is quite spacious and has a fireplace. A formal dining room has an impressive Waterford chandelier to light up your dinner parties. The eat-in sparkling white kitchen is beautiful with its great cabinetry and appliances. Right off the kitchen is the family room w/built-ins and French doors to the truly special back patio. The primary suite with plantation shutters, Zen-like bathroom and walk-in closet is a wonderful place to unwind. A second sunny bedroom, hall full bath and laundry closet w/shelving and storage in the kitchen completes the main floor. The unfinished lower level is finishable and oversized. A fenced terrace is a welcome spot for relaxing and enjoying the outdoors. Another major plus is that the big ticket items have been completed in the last few years: roof, roads, and fences. This is an exceptional unit and move-in ready.
