Fantastic value for a 2 bed 1 bath condo at The Willows. Smart layout with kitchen pass through and a fantastic balcony showcasing Mt. Benson. Tucked away from the road, yet just steps to shopping, schools, transit and recreation, you get the quiet without the compromise. Pets and rentals both permitted, with a reasonable strata fee and Forest Drive Gyro Park access for residents with a communal garden. Measurements Approximate. Buyer to verify any information fundamental to their purchase. For more information, contact Travis Briggs at 250-713-5501 or travis@travisbriggs.ca (Measurements and data approximate; verify if important.)
