Looking for that downtown lifestyle with great location and low maintenance? This beautifully remodeled townhome in the gated community of Opera House Square has a lot to offer! This 2 bedroom, 2.5 bath end unit features a courtyard entry, beautiful hand scraped hardwood flooring, updated kitchen with granite and stainless steel appliances, new carpet in the bedrooms, master bath with double granite vanity and travertine shower, and my favorite feature is the solarium style triple skylight open to both floors and bringing plenty of natural light into the kitchen/dining areas. Recent improvements include Air Conditioner (2014), Furnace (2018), and a huge patio door that overlooks your back patio and brick privacy wall. Front room could be formal dining or home office. Truly a unique property close to the Opera House and Triangle Park!
