Property Description
Welcome to Old Swedes Court, a wonderful opportunity to live in a private courtyard community renowned for its picturesque landscaping, lush gardens and mature trees, all within the highly sought-after Meredith School Catchment. This spacious 1,500-square-foot condominium offers two bedrooms, one-and-a-half baths and private garage parking.
Enter into an inviting living room featuring original solid oak hardwood floors, a wood-burning fireplace, an oversized window overlooking the courtyard and a generous coat closet. Step up a few stairs to the conveniently located powder room and dining room, where a dramatic floor-to-ceiling east-facing window fills the space with beautiful morning light and offers glimpses of the river. The dining room flows seamlessly into the expanded eat-in kitchen, thoughtfully enlarged by the current owners and appointed with abundant Omega solid cherry cabinetry, designer concrete countertops, a glass-tile backsplash, newer top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances including a premium induction range, porcelain tile flooring and a built-in cherry desk and workstation. An additional east-facing window brings in more morning light along with partial river views.
Upstairs, the front bedroom features original hardwood floors, two courtyard-facing windows and a wall of closets. The beautifully designed hall bath includes a frameless glass shower with a handsome tile surround. A second bedroom, currently used as a sitting room, also enjoys lovely courtyard views.
The lower level provides direct interior access to the private garage. From the garage, a separate door opens to a useful storage area extending beneath the living room. Marvin windows throughout, a newer HVAC system installed approximately two years ago and a new garage door complete this special courtyard residence.
Enjoy a premier Queen Village location within walking distance of neighborhood restaurants, cafés, parks, playgrounds and everything this vibrant community has to offer, with convenient access to major highways and bridges. A truly special condominium in one of Queen Village's most picturesque settings, schedule your private showing today!
