Buyers, make the offer you think might offend. Sellers weren't complaining when offers were coming in $100K over asking a few years ago, and today's market gives buyers an opportunity to negotiate. Welcome to Paintbox, where the homes are bold, the neighbors are friendly, and your personality actually fits in. Built in 2021, this three-story townhome offers two bedrooms and two full bathrooms with a bright, open-concept layout and a tandem two-car garage with serious storage space. The spacious first-floor foyer makes coming, going, and dog walking easy, while the oversized tandem garage offers more possibilities than simply parking two cars. The rear garage bay with windows offers the potential to be converted into a third bedroom and bathroom, similar to the floor plans found in Paintbox homes along Memorial Drive. The difference? You get the flexibility without living directly on Memorial. Keep the two-car garage and all that storage or explore creating additional living space down the road. Tucked toward the back of the community near the dog park, this unit gives you a little extra privacy while still embracing the heart of Paintbox living. The landscaped central courtyard is designed for connection and casual porch parties with neighbors. A spacious foyer makes dog walking and daily life easy before heading upstairs to the bright white kitchen featuring an oversized island, huge pantry, and clear sightlines into the open living space. Just off the living area, the covered porch with a mounted TV is ready for morning coffee, game days, or happy hour.
