Morning coffee on the enclosed porch, looking straight across the pond to the fountain. That’s the everyday view from this one-story 2-bed, 2-bath end unit in Heatherwood, and the big-ticket work is already done. The kitchen is new for 2026: quartz counters, a subway-tile backsplash, a workstation sink, stainless appliances, a closet pantry, and a breakfast bar open to the great room. A new slider leads to the porch, a true second living space with brick floors, a ceiling fan, a storage closet, and a wall of windows on the water. Step outside to the patio and the lawn at the pond’s edge. The primary suite shares the pond view, with a walk-in closet and a new glass-enclosed walk-in shower.

A full-size washer and dryer stay, and two assigned spaces sit right out front. Fresh paint throughout, plus a roof from 2021/2022, HVAC and water heater from 2022, and gutters and patio from 2023, leave nothing big on the to-do list. The condo fee covers internet, cable, trash, landscaping, exterior maintenance, pest control, and the community pool, with no special assessments. Flood Zone X, no CDD.
