A QUIET PLACE TO RECHARGE What makes this condo special is the setting.

The community feels tucked away from the surrounding city and is surrounded by mature trees and green space. Your new neighbors are primarily retirees (owners), and professionals. There's a private community outdoor pool, professionally maintained grounds feature mature and flowering trees, wooded areas, a nearby creek and tons of local wildlife. There is also a lovely neighborhood park directly across the street.

It is the kind of environment where you can come home from a busy lab or workday and actually enjoy some peace and quiet.

At the same time, tons of shopping, restaurants and everyday conveniences are nearby, with a major new retail development planned within walking distance.

PETS Cats, small dogs and other small pets may be considered on a case-by-case basis with an additional pet fee.

The photos only tell part of the story. The wooded surroundings, beautifully maintained grounds and peaceful atmosphere are best experienced in person.
