Elevated Living, Thoughtfully Updated Condo. Set on the 11th floor, this hillside-facing condo is a hidden gem of the complex, offering a rare combination of comfort, light, and calm. The kitchen and both bathrooms have been updated in a sleek, contemporary style, including an extra-deep primary suite tub for long soaks to melt away the stress of the day. With wood floors throughout, this home is truly move-in ready. Floor-to-ceiling windows in each bedroom fill the space with light and a genuine sense of room to breathe. From the bedrooms and from the balcony off the living room, the view is of hillside trees and nature — a quiet, green outlook that changes gently with the seasons and makes morning coffee or evening wind-down feel a little more restorative. Deer sightings and morning birdsong are the norm. Amenities include tennis courts, a gym, and a sauna and jacuzzi for unwinding, a swimming pool, plus included high-speed internet and a deeded parking space. Minutes to Ranch 99, Albany Bulb, and Solano Avenue shops and dining, with easy El Cerrito BART, AC Transit bus, and freeway access for a simple East Bay commute, and an Albany address for highly rated schools.
