Realtor's description
Top-floor living at its finest in the highly sought-after Newport on Main! This bright, west-facing 2 bed/2 bath home has seen over $150K in extensive renovations, including a new gourmet kitchen with upgraded appliances, fully renovated bathrooms, maple hardwood flooring, up-down window coverings (incl. blackouts in both bedrooms) + so much more. Vaulted cathedral ceilings and skylights (w/ custom coverings) flood the space with natural light while keeping things comfortable year-round. Enjoy in-suite laundry, in-suite storage, and 1 parking stall, all within a fully rainscreened building known for its proactive, well-managed strata (currently backed by a CRF over $1.7M for real long-term peace of mind). Building amenities include a gym, large courtyard, and on-site caretaker. Nestled in the heart of Riley Park, this walker's paradise puts you steps from parks, local shops, coffee spots, Michelin-rated restaurants, and transit. A rare opportunity in one of the area's most desirable + pet-friendly buildings
