April 2023 Price Reduction!
This ~2200 sq ft upper level condo is available for this April! It is exceptionally well-appointed and spacious, and only five years old. Typically owner-occupied and only new to the rental market. This condo has a guest bathroom that is currently under construction, so that bedroom and bathroom are not currently accessible, hence making a large unit for a single or a couple. Please note that there is also some work being done to the laundry room floor, but the laundry room is by and large unaffected. No construction work will be done during your stay. The affected area is a small portion at the front of the condo whereas the vast majority of the space is unaffected and towards the rear of the condo. Please see photos to understand the layout. Please feel free to ask any questions! What follows is our original listing.
Welcome to the Retreat at Desert Willow. This ~2500 square foot condo sits quietly on the second floor with no neighbours above, and is located within a safe, gated neighbourhood.
