Welcome to this exceptional two-bedroom residence at The Promenade, featuring over $95,000 in thoughtful upgrades. In 2017, both the kitchen and bathroom were completely gutted to the studs and rebuilt, creating a home that seamlessly blends modern luxury with timeless appeal. Enter through an upgraded front door with new lock, deadbolt, doorknocker, and peephole into a welcoming entryway with a lowered architectural ceiling and five adjustable recessed overhead lights. The stunning kitchen features tile flooring and showcases three walls of spacious wood cabinetry with self-closing doors, including a large pantry, complemented by three walls of marble countertops and a modern backsplash. All major appliances were purchased new in 2017, including a GE refrigerator with exterior water/ice dispenser, GE dishwasher, GE stove and microwave, garbage disposal, and an LG washer/dryer approved by Promenade management. Under-cabinet adjustable brightness lighting and modern overhead fixtures illuminate the space beautifully. A nearby bar area with three glass shelves, granite countertop, mirrored wall, large wood cabinet storage, and adjustable recessed lighting creates the perfect entertaining space. The renovated bathroom features a high-level granite vanity with 8 self-closing drawers and generous central compartment, a large medicine cabinet with four adjustable volume lights above, a separate heat-lamp light, adjustable lighting over the shower, upgraded electrical sockets, upgraded toilet, and a modern shower with built-in seat. Elegant six-inch baseboards and crown molding grace every room, while the original parquet floors have been machine-sanded and finished with four coats of premium water-based polyurethane. Television cables are hidden within the molding and walls for a clean aesthetic. The second bedroom/study features two frosted glass French doors that can open to expand the living space or close for privacy. Inside you'll find modern overhead lighting, ceiling-to-floor modern blinds by Blinds-to-go, a completely updated electrical panel (GE120 fuse box with room for additional switches), and a balcony just one floor above the gardens with a sealed floor and painted inner wall. The spacious living room offers beautiful, unobstructed views of the outdoor pool and gardens through windows framed by 2.25-inch casement for added eye appeal. A convenient utility/coat closet near the kitchen provides double-hung rods and moveable shelving. The hallway features a large closet with center shelves between two areas of double-hung rods. The master bedroom includes a cable port for TV, windows framed by 2.25-inch casement, and a large walk-in closet with floor-to-ceiling shelves in the center and rods on both sides with two levels of shelves above for additional storage. An entry-way closet offers two double-hung clothing areas, a single-hang clothing rod, and shelving. All of the units closets were professionally designed to maximize storage space.
