New Listing! Top Floor Condo in Pinehurst

by Erin Brumett on April 3, 2010

Convenience: This clean top floor two bedroom two bath home has a great layout with copious storage. With a hallway lined with closets, the allocated storage space located on your deck almost seems like too much of a good thing.  Spacious living room and dining room are an easy canvas to imprint your own style. The sizable master suite is located down the hall from the living and entertaining areas but close to the washer and dryer.  Facing toward the back of the building, the unit is quiet and serene, and with no one able to walk your roof line you are ensured a relaxing space. A must for a fourth floor unit, the elevator makes trips from your parking space to the top floor a breeze. The building has replaced it’s interior carpeting, and painted the hallways.  The exterior of the building is currently being painted with updated custom colors.  Superb location, only blocks to Northgate Mall, and around the corner from coffee shops, restaurants and Pinehurst Elementary School.
