Description & details

Great 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. 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 1 OWNED underground parking space. The living room opens onto a charming Juliet balcony, but the real showstopper is the rare 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!

The data only goes so far — condition, light and layout are worth seeing in person, with a home inspection, before you commit.
