Bright, refreshed, and ready to go, this top-floor 1BD/1BA condo at Center Place has been thoughtfully updated and is waiting for its next home owner. Brand-new carpet and flooring, fresh paint, new refrigerator, bathroom mirror and fixtures throughout make this a turn key home. The open living area flows to a private balcony with peaceful treetop views, your own little escape without leaving home. The full bathroom has been freshened up with a new vanity mirror, faucet and fixtures. The unit comes with a large storage closet plus one assigned parking space to round out the package. Building amenities include an elevator, shared laundry across the hall, green landscaping and a sparkling community pool, all in the heart of downtown Novato. Everyday convenience is right at your doorstep. Grab a slice at Mountain Mike's, pick up fresh salsa at the beloved local favorite Tommy's Salsa, or sit down for a Thai dinner at Chao Praya, all just steps away. Pini Hardware and the post office make errands a breeze, and when you need a bigger run, Safeway, Starbucks, and Habit Burger are just a couple of blocks further. Whether it's your morning coffee, a quick errand, or a relaxed dinner out, this location truly delivers the ease of walkable neighborhood living.
