About this home

Welcome to this super cute 2 bed, 2 bath 2nd floor rear condo in bustling University City. Walk in and the first thing you notice is how big it feels — vaulted ceilings and lots of natural sun light give it a very open, airy vibe. Being on the top floor, rear facing allows for an overall quieter unit - no upstairs neighbors, more natural light, and an insulated barrier from the parking lot traffic and noise. The wood-burning fireplace anchors the living space — an actual focal point, not an afterthought. A rare feature lacking in many properties today. What makes this condo so unique is the cabinet extension, adding much appreciated countertop space and plenty additional storage. Beautifully extended so it allows room for a breakfast nook table to enjoy food with friends. A pass-through bar that keeps you connected to the living room keeps the spaces connected. It's built for real use with high top stools adding to the seating options. Stepping outside of the living room, the private deck offers a dual entry into the primary suite - your outdoor space without leaving the unit. The secondary bedroom, two full baths, recently renovated with new shower surrounds and vanities, large walk-in closet with ample shelving, and a dedicated laundry closet round off this unit off with everything you need, nothing wasted. In the heart of University City area, UNC Charlotte, I-85, I-485, and 1 mile from the LYNX Blue Line – you have access to everything you need. Whether this is your home or your next investment — this is one of the strongest values in the University City corridor right now.
