All the big-ticket items are done, meaning you can move straight in, unpack, and enjoy without the stress of renovations, hidden costs, or waiting on trades. The courtyard is a standout, offering a beautiful mix of open-air and covered outdoor space—a place where you can entertain year-round, soak up the sun in winter, or let your pot plants thrive with light and rain. There's even enough grass for a small pet, so if you've been searching for an easy-care home where you can still enjoy the outdoors without the upkeep, this one delivers in spades.
