About This Home

Charming, cozy condo in fantastic shape and ready for move-in awaits a new owner! Tired of paying rent, or want to invest in a solid rental unit in a great location with tons of life left and a healthy rental rate? The unit was just remodeled and has an open floor-plan plus laundry downstairs, correctly located in a laundry closet downstairs as opposed to inside the bathroom like some of the other units in this complex. From the red brick walls to the enclosed Saltillo tile patio entrance, the condo has tons of character and feels more like a home than a rental unit. Each bedroom has new flooring and its own private balcony. The spacious living room, flanked by the red brick wall, feels warm and inviting. Come enjoy calm mornings and cool nights lounging by the pool in your own little slice of tropical paradise. The unit includes two covered parking spaces.
