Property Description
This condo was renovated to be 80% more energy efficient than similar units in the community. This was achieved through a Deep Energy Retrofit that included super sealing the condo envelope with spray foam and caulking to eliminate leaks, insulating the exterior walls with Thermal Faced Sheet Foam providing superior insulating capacity, and adding top performing insulation to ceilings, walls and under the floor. The windows and sliding door were replaced with High Performance Energy Core triple pane glass resulting in superior energy efficiency and noise reduction. A High Efficiency Fujitsu 27 seer split zone HVAC system was installed that makes this unit both comfortable and cost effective. Similar units in the community are paying $300 to $400/mo for their utility bills, whereas this unit is only $60 to $70/mo due to the efficient and eco-friendly upgrades that the seller has made. It saves money and looks great at the same time. The European kitchen has a large center island with sitting space, a deep large kitchen sink, a trash compactor, GE Profile oven, and induction electric cooktop, a Samsung dishwasher and a Stainless-Steel side-by-side refrigerator. High cabinets with a gloss finish, and the tile Backsplash finishes off the impressive kitchen. Wide plank Swedish wood flooring throughout, which you just dont see in these garden style condos. The main living area has a fireplace with a nook set up for a flat screen TV above with built-in surround sound and large glass doors that lead to a large Trex deck overlooking the lake. Most of the other units have smaller decks made of wood, but on this deck, you have cabinets for storage, flower boxes, a place for the grill and a view you cant beat. Some great features on this home are the lighting controls. As you enter a bathroom or closest, the lights come on and will auto off after a time, again saving energy. It even has a central vacuum through it! How many condos do you know with a central vacuum? There are two updated Baths, the hall bathroom has a music system, a large soaking tub / shower. The stylish tile work, beautiful vanity with marble sink. The 2nd bedroom was built with a pocket door so it can be used as part of the Owners suite or closed off. This owner is using it as an office. The room has great built-ins on the side with hidden full size LG washer and dryer. Once you enter the Owners Suite you see that it has a fireplace/heater with a built-in space for the TV above and surround sound. As you enter the Owners bath you will find, again, the stylish tile flooring, a double sink vanity with storage cabinets on top of the countertops, beautiful lighting fixtures, mirrors and even crown trimmed out above the mirror. A gloss Lucite wall on the back wall of the wet area of the toilet and shower along with glass shower enclosure add to the thoughtfulness of how it was rebuilt. The shower is equipped with body sprayers and two showerheads. Behind the bath is a nice large walk-in closet. The sunset, the peaceful setting looking over the lake and watching the birds should be enough. But the fact that you get all that and a totally energy, efficient, and eco-friendly home means that this is the right home!
