Open House Review: 22 Pinewood

Woodbridge Condo Polished to Perfection

22 Pinewood #58 $890,000

As you turn off of West Yale Loop onto Shorebird, a small lane winds back to 22 Pinewood #58. From the curb the home has a finished presence and it is easy to suspect that will be true inside. Stepping into the gated courtyard with fountain, and then moving inside, suspicions are confirmed. This two level, detached condo is immaculate, beautifully detailed, and inviting throughout. The right buyer can simply move in.

CloseUp: A formal entry with travertine floors with granite inlays opens into an airy floor plan with cathedral ceilings.

The patio is professionally landscaped and beautifully detailed providing an inviting view and a perfect spot for entertaining. There’s also a den and small library.

The kitchen is off to the left of the dining area. It is equally sleek with granite slab counters, two ovens including a convection oven, stainless appliances and light Maple flooring.
