Everything just redone -- brand new kitchen with all stainless appliances and stone counter top, floors refinished and gleaming, fresh paint, brand new washer-dryer in unit for 2026. Lead compliant. The kitchen is huge with plenty of room for a large table + there is common area off the kitchen than can function as a living room (if the apartment is used as a three bedroom) or extended dining room/ family room. Sliding doors to a beck deck. All good sized rooms, beautiful bathroom, and the parking spots are deeded in back. Pets are negotiable with excellent references and a small upcharge. Heat and hot water is included. This is a great deal with heat + parking included in such an excellent location.
