Welcome to Unit 508 at 34 Hickory Street West, a smartly designed 583 sq. ft. one-bedroom plus dining, two-bathroom suite in Waterloo’s vibrant university district. Positioned on the 5th floor, this well-planned unit offers an excellent blend of functionality, comfort, and modern style, making it a strong option for students, young professionals, parents purchasing for their children, or investors looking for a highly rentable layout in one of the city’s proven rental locations. Just steps from Wilfrid Laurier University and minutes from the University of Waterloo, this address also places you close to transit, restaurants, shopping, and everyday essentials. Inside, the suite is designed to maximize every square foot with an efficient and highly practical layout. The one-bedroom plus dining configuration provides valuable flexibility, allowing space for a dining area, study zone, or compact work-from-home setup without sacrificing day-to-day comfort. The modern kitchen flows naturally into the living space, creating an open and inviting atmosphere that feels bright, clean, and easy to furnish. Large windows bring in natural light and enhance the overall sense of openness, while the contemporary finishes contribute to a polished and low-maintenance living environment. A major highlight of this unit is the rare two-bathroom layout, including a private ensuite connected to the bedroom, offering added privacy that is not often found in suites of this size. This feature significantly improves both livability and rental appeal, especially for shared occupancy or guests. Although the unit does not have a balcony, the interior layout is efficient and well balanced, making full use of the living space. Adding to the appeal of the building, a brand new dessert location on the main floor creates an exciting lifestyle amenity right at your doorstep. Unit 508 is a compelling opportunity to secure a modern, functional condo in a high-demand Waterloo location.
