Price improvement Bright, clean, and move-in ready! This larger 1634 Model, with an inviting two-level townhome-style condo, is quietly tucked along a low-traffic street in Cardinal Forest. A defined foyer welcomes you into a thoughtfully arranged main level featuring easy-care tile flooring, plantation-style blinds, a convenient powder room, and a dedicated laundry closet. The front dining area flows into a well-equipped kitchen with granite countertops, abundant wood cabinetry, a pass-through to the living room, and a new over-the-range exhaust hood installed in 2026. At the rear, the spacious 15'2" × 15'9" approx. living room offers ample space for relaxing and entertaining.
