A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY:
Since this particular unit was custom-designed for the original owner, it includes unique features, design elements, and upgrades that distinguish it from other units. For example:
a) 10726 is the only unit in the entire development allowed to have a private fenced, gated courtyard.
b) The building may be the only one constructed with 10’+ ceilings (nearly 9’ finished) in the lower level.
c) The home's security system, gated courtyard, nearby lamp posts (both in front and rear) and landscape lighting all enhance security.
d) The finished area (3,364 SF) is larger than most other units, including all the units sold recently.
LOCATION:
The townhome is positioned on the east side (the quiet side) of the development. The front yard faces east for morning sunshine on the private fenced courtyard and colorful perennial garden. The deck and patio face west with straight-on views of the central pond with its lovely fountain.
The location on the bluffs over the Minnesota River is ideal for nature lovers, with eagles soaring and ducks, geese and turtles enjoying the pond. The boat launch and riverside walking or biking trails are a short stroll down to the river. 106th Street is just a block away providing quick, convenient access to I-35 and the greater metro area, airport, shopping, dining and entertainment.
