Property Description

Tucked at the far edge of the Paladin Club community, framed by a canopy of old-growth trees, 158 Paladin Drive is the kind of quiet retreat that rarely comes to market. Held in the same family since the community’s inception, this top-floor condo offers a serene, low-density setting with townhomes across the way and effortless parking right outside your door. A Sanctuary Above the Trees Inside this top-floor residence, soaring vaulted ceilings in the living room amplify the natural light. Big front-facing windows flood the home with warm afternoon sun throughout the summer, while bright winter light streams across the living space and into the primary bedroom. Off the bedroom, a versatile bonus room with its own window offers the ideal footprint for a dedicated work-from-home office or a custom walk-in closet. Beneath your feet, poured concrete subfloors provide superior sound buffering and peace of mind. Modern comfort and major systems are already taken care of: HVAC & Hot Water Heater: Upgraded within the last 5 years. Flooring: Modernized throughout the last 5 years. Kitchen Upgrades: Custom cold water filtration system installed directly at the sink. Storage: Includes a spacious, dry, ground-floor storage unit with a window for natural light and ventilation. Indoor-Outdoor Living Step through the sliding doors onto your private deck—a seamless extension of the living space. Mornings here begin with coffee alongside the gentle serenade of songbirds nesting in the surrounding tree line. In the evening, unwind to the glow of fireflies and the quiet calm of an established, tree-filled neighborhood.
