This beautifully updated condo offers new flooring throughout. The well-appointed kitchen includes granite countertops and backsplash, and wood cabinetry. The generously sized bedroom easily accommodates a king-sized bed with additional furniture. Storage is abundant, with a large walk-in closet in the entry foyer plus an additional storage area in the building. A 17-foot balcony provides the perfect spot to start your day with sunrise views and morning coffee, or wind down with an evening cocktail while grilling with friends. James House is a well-managed building and offers full-service amenities, including 24/7 door staff, an on-site management office, receiving room, and more. Monthly rent includes everything except electricity. Residents of Sandburg Village enjoy access to two pools, tennis courts, and pickleball courts for additional membership fees. This is a no-pet and no-smoking unit. Convenient public transportation options are just blocks away, and an on-site parking garage is available for a reasonable monthly rate.
