A spacious 901 square foot top floor unit in the well-managed and sought after Parkside condominium less than a mile from Grosvenor/Strathmore Red Line Metro Station & with the #6 Ride-On bus stop at the side of the building! This southwest-facing unit is flooded with winter sunshine and has a big balcony off the living room to enjoy the seasonal changes without leaving home! The reasonable $416 per month condo fee covers ALL utilities including heat, hot water, air conditioning, and water/sewer. The parking lot on the right side is free (a sticker is required) for you and guests or there's easy street parking in the front. Refinished wood parquet floors greet you with a hall entrance, large storage closets, and a bright living room. The dining "L" holds a big table for entertaining. A cook is sure to enjoy the remodeled kitchen with marbled granite counters, a gas stove with center griddle, built-in microwave, large refrigerator with icemaker, dishwasher, and disposal - all stainless! There's even a separate kitchen entrance from the hall - so you don't need to track the groceries through the living room. There's a pantry and cherrywood kitchen cabinets and room for a small table & 2 chairs here! Before you reach the remodeled bathroom there's a spacious hall area that can hold a desk and chair for a home office area. The bathroom has been updated in a modern and stylish idiom that's appealing. An oversized bedroom with 2 tall closets and 2 big windows compliments the roomy living area. There is a clean and well-maintained laundry room on the lower level with a storage room behind it where bikes may be kept and each unit has its own storage space if desired.
The Parkside is a 3-time winner of national awards as an exemplary condominium. It has multiple committees that oversee the direction and enjoyment of the owners and occupants and are open for you to join as desired. You are not just close by Metro, but Strathmore Hall Music & Art Center, Garrett Park MARC Rail Station, restaurants, and shopping large and small including Whole Foods off Rockville Pike nearby. There's a summer pool, tennis courts, children's playground, ball field, and a clubhouse that can be reserved for private events (subject to COVID restrictions). You are located beside Rock Creek Park on the rear of the condo complex with miles of trails north and south. This condo has a track record since 1981 of sound finances and fiscal responsibility which goes a long way to ensuring financial security for you as a buyer. For those who do not like to deal with multiple contractors and steep prices, there's a condo-managed repair service for almost everything an owner could need at very reasonable prices. It's approved for Conventional, FHA, and VA financing. What a super location that is hard to beat, and if you like a roomy, bright top floor unit in a low rise garden style condo then this one is hard to beat!
