Our townhome is on the east side (the quiet side) of the development. The front yard faces east for morning sunshine on the private fenced courtyard and colorful perennial garden. The deck and patio face west with straight-on views of the central pond with its lovely fountain.Since this unit was custom-designed for the original owner, it includes unique features, design elements, and upgrades that distinguish it from other units. For example:a) 10726 is the only unit in the entire development allowed to have a private fenced, gated courtyard.b) The building may be the only one constructed with 10' ceilings (nearly 9' finished) in the lower level.c) The home's security system, gated courtyard, nearby lamp posts (both in front and rear) and landscape lighting all enhance security.d) Total finished area (3,364 SF) is larger than most other units, including recent sales.We updated and upgraded the home extensively from floors to ceilings. Oak hardwood floors were refinished, ceramic tile replaced vinyl floors, and main-floor carpet was replaced with high-quality Karasta
