Sweet Condo off of NW 21st

Saturday, May 7th, 2011

YouTube Preview ImageAttractive Building, Charming Condo, Superb Location and Parking Included! This great condo has wood floors and box beam ceilings in the living room (with 9′ ceilings throughout). One thing I love about this condo is that it has lots of large windows and southern exposure, allowing for maximum sunlight. It also has a nicely remodeled kitchen with stainless steel appliances and cherry cabinets.

No need to worry about where to park your car because this condominium comes with off-street parking as well as an additional storage unit in the basement.

One of the best things about this great home is its location. Situated about a 1/2 block from NW 21st AVE and less than 2 blocks from 23rd AVE, this property is literally a few blocks from your choice of restaurants, lounges, cafes, shops, the street car, Cinema 21 & Trader Joes.

If you’re still renting, this SHOULD be the year that you stop worrying about how much your landlord is going to jack up your rent next month.  Get into this condo with a 30-year fixed mortgage at a low interest rate and stop contributing toward someone else’s equity! 

This is a stunning Pearl District condo. The Elizabeth has every modern convenience and unparalleled style.
