A truly standout, fully renovated two-story one-bedroom, one-bathroom condo filled with natural light and designed to impress at every turn. This residence in The Gables offers a rare combination of privacy, style, and serene surroundings, with no neighbors above and tranquil views overlooking the pond and waterfall. Step inside to discover brand-new luxury vinyl flooring, fresh paint throughout, all new lighting fixtures, and custom black blinds that add a sleek, modern touch.

Comfort and peace of mind come with a brand-new HVAC system and hot water heater, both replaced in September 2025. The spacious upper-level bedroom-unlike many recent below-grade layouts-offers a bright retreat along with a convenient laundry area and generous closet space, including a walk-in closet. Enjoy relaxing on your private balcony/deck with picturesque water views. Living in The Gables means access to exceptional amenities including a clubhouse with exercise room, community pool, tennis courts, racquetball, and pickleball, all just across the street. Ideally located near hiking and biking trails, Pike & Rose, Whole Foods, Strathmore Music Center, two Metro stations, bus lines, and major commuter routes including I-495 and I-270, this home offers both convenience and a peaceful, park-like setting.
