Condominium in Columbus, IN

Buyers ask, "So why are they selling so quickly? Is it because a new apartment building is going up across the street?" The answer is No! - there is an apartment building under construction across the street (photo supplement to this listing) but owners love living downtown and recognize that city living will only improve with more residents, so the new apartments help. Sellers moved to Columbus two years ago to be near their daughter and her family, which now includes an 18 month old grandson. Having spent two years and a bunch of $ renovating the condo (details on improvements are another supplement), the daughter asked them to buy the house next door - so they are! Owners love this condo! Wonderful neighbors, and the space is perfect as they get a little older. Main floor living, including private front door entry, doors wide enough for a wheelchair, and grab bars in primary bath, 2 car parking garage in lower level with elevator are perfect for any future needs. The main room includes space for the living rm and dining rm, open to kitchen - and what a kitchen! Semi-custom cabinets provide much more than traditional storage. A cabinet for a Kitchen Aide mixer and two refrigerator drawers are in this dream kitchen. The primary bedroom is huge, so provides great office corner. Bath has double sinks, shower and tub/shower. Second bedroom is decorated as Den/Library with built-in book shelves and cozy fireplace - sleeper sofa makes this a handy guestroom. Large laundry completes the indoor space. Common area patio out back has room for a firepit and lots of exterior seating. Beyond is over an acre of grass and trees enjoyed by owners and maintained by Cummins. So yes - the owners hate to leave! But one look in that grandson's sweet face and the decision was easy. This condo represents the best downtown Columbus has to offer. HOA fee includes water, sewer, trash, recycling, yard maintenance, snow removal, insurance on exterior.Recent $519K appraisal attached.
