Welcome to 2461 Merri Claude Drive in the beautiful 55+ community of Jefferson Crossing! This condo comes with an elevator to take you up to main floor living. Even if you don't need an elevator at the moment, it's amazing for bringing up groceries and hosting friends who have had recent knee/hip surgeries. All the bedrooms and bathrooms plus laundry are located on the same floor! As you enter, you can either walk up or take the elevator to the main floor. You'll immediately notice the brand-new carpeting that leads you up to the hardwood floors upstairs. This condo feels extremely spacious due to the high ceilings throughout. Based on the positioning of this interior unit you'll benefit from an ample amount of natural light coming from both sides. The kitchen comes with granite countertops, a gas stove and a large breakfast bar that can seat up to four people. Both a brand-new garbage disposal and dishwasher have just been installed. This room is open concept which is wonderful for entertaining. The kitchen flows into the living room. Enjoy relaxing in front of the gas fireplace. And if you'd like to host or need a place to put your large table, this condo also comes with a formal dining room. Many owners use the dining room as an office or hobby room as well. The primary bedroom also comes with brand new carpeting, a walk-in closet, a bonus closet and an ensuite bathroom. The tiled bathroom has a large stand-up shower and a fully functional jacuzzi tub. This main floor also comes with a 2nd bedroom with an ensuite bathroom which is perfect for guests.
