First time home buyer opportunity to own a beautifully upgraded 740 sqft furnished condo, just a short walk from Wilfrid Laurier University, the University of Waterloo and Conestoga College. With the school year starting in September, this is the ideal time to secure a home for yourself or a turn key investment. Freshly painted throughout and outfitted with brand-new laminate flooring, this move in ready partially furnished unit shows better than ever. The open concept layout features a contemporary kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and generous storage, making it perfect for everyday living or entertaining. The unit offers 2 spacious bedrooms, a private ensuite laundry, and a rare owned underground parking space. The living room opens onto a charming Juliet balcony, but the real showstopper is the massive 10x30ft private terrace, a true one-of-a-kind outdoor space rarely found in condo living, ideal for lounging, entertaining, or simply enjoying the fresh air right outside your door. Whether you're a student, a parent looking to secure housing before the fall semester, or an investor seeking a high-demand rental location, this condo checks every box!
