This charming 1-bedroom, 1.5 bath garden-level condo offers an ideal blend of comfort, convenience, and natural surroundings, featuring more square footage than many comparable units thanks to a thoughtful bonus space buildout. The home has been beautifully updated with waterproof vinyl plank flooring throughout, bathrooms renovated approximately eight years ago, and major systems and features already taken care of, including new windows and glass doors (2020), a sliding door (2018), a brand-new HVAC system (2023), and a washer and dryer (2024). The spacious primary suite includes a large walk-in closet, a stall shower, and direct access to a private second patio, while the front porch terrace showcases a tiered garden space perfect for relaxing outdoors. Backing to a serene wooded setting, the home offers immediate access to scenic walking paths that connect directly to Lake Anne Plaza, where you can enjoy shops, dining, fitness classes, and everyday conveniences just minutes away. Residents also have access to the lake itself, with the ability to register kayaks or canoes, as well as nearby pools, jog/walk paths, and community amenities... all included within the condo association, along with gas, water, exterior maintenance, weekly patio cleaning, parking lot upkeep, and even 5G internet. The property includes assigned parking (space #5), ample street parking, and additional storage in a separate building. The well-managed community has recently completed major improvements such as new roofs, updated water systems, and new trash and recycling enclosures, with no special assessments during current ownership. Looking ahead, all outdoor stairs are scheduled for replacement in 2026, with minimal disruption expected for this ground-level unit with private rear access. This is a rare opportunity to enjoy a peaceful, nature-filled setting with unbeatable walkability and a strong, amenity-rich community.
