About this House

What's unique:Lovely patio out frontSplit floorplanHuge community poolGranite countertops
Rare find --- ground floor end unit condo with a garage! This floorplan is the larger plan -- almost 1500 s.f., split floorplan with 2 large bedrooms, 2 full baths, and an office that could be a 3rd bedroom with the addition of a closet. New luxury vinyl plank wood-look flooring in the living areas, new walk-in shower in the primary suite, neutrals colors throughout, granite countertops. Open floorplan with peninsula/bar area overlooking dining room, lovely patio out front. Alexander Chase has a 20% cap on rentals within the complex, meaning 80% of the units are owner-occupied. Huge community pool, clubhouse, fitness center, and close proximity to Birkdale and shopping (a greenway leads to Birkdale) so the location can't be beat. *** Some rooms virtually staged***
