LIVE LIFE ON VACATION in this bright & cheerful penthouse condo in the historic waterfront town of Havre de Grace. This cozy 2 bed/2 bath condo has both water & pool views and plenty of pizzazz with volume ceilings, angled walls, niches and a cool contemporary vibe. Before you enter the unit, you will notice the beautiful new fiberglass front door. Once inside the foyer, the scene opens to a great room consisting of a living room, dining room, and a galley kitchen with a breakfast bar--all with dramatic high ceilings and gorgeous light streaming through abundant windows. The side windows in the dining room are a fabulous upgrade providing lagoon and river views and stunning sunrises. The cool spiral staircase takes you to a good-sized sleeping loft or use it as a combo 3rd bedroom/office, kids' playroom, music room--you have so many options. To the left of the foyer is a hallway that takes you to the guest bedroom & hall (full) bath and then to the primary suite with a cathedral bedroom, a bay window nook, a walk-in closet & an attached bath. The efficient galley kitchen has been nicely updated with newer cabinetry, granite counters, tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and attractive flooring. The laundry closet in the kitchen has full-size, front-loading, stackable Whirlpool washer and dryer. The windows have been replaced with double hung units that tilt in for easy cleaning. The newer sliding glass door opens to the deck with a back staircase that leads to the greenspace where you are just a few easy steps from the picnic area outside the sparkling pool. In summer, the pool area is transformed into an oasis which will make you think you are in the tropics. The condo has a tandem 2-car garage which can hold your car as well as your water toys, bikes, grill and other "important stuff". Soon residents will be attending CBC's annual MEMORIAL WEEKEND POOL-OPENING PARTY where they will meet new neighbors and reconnect with old friends to share in a potluck meal and an afternoon & evening of stimulating conversation & belly laughs. Canvasback Cove Condominiums is a perfectly located community of 96 condos and 72 deeded boat slips within walking distance of the vibrant downtown--with its interesting shops & eclectic restaurants--as well as myriad museums, parks, fishing spots, marinas & boat launches, and so much more. From your unit, it's a pleasant stroll to the Lighthouse and Havre de Grace's renowned PROMENADE, a scenic boardwalk that meanders along the CHESAPEAKE BAY SHORELINE from the Lighthouse Park to the City Marina and Tydings Park, The Promenade Grille, and Pickleball courts which are conveniently located next to the expanded playground. Along the Promenade you'll pass the stunning black granite Gold Star Family memorial and an awesome fish sculpture. Havre de Grace boasts 3 awesome live entertainment venues and has become the "go to" place for weddings, prom photos & other special occasions. If you'd rather not walk, then leave your car at the condo or park in one of the free lots and RIDE THE "TIDE" - a free jitney service that picks you up & drops you off at the town's most popular attractions & fabulous restaurants. So there's no excuse for not getting around and having fun in this cool, inviting and diverse town which is known for its fabulous 4th of July festivities complete with an old-fashioned parade thru the main streets and a spectacular fireworks display that tops off the weekend's events. BUT WAIT...THERE'S MORE! You'll enjoy seasonal First Friday street fairs & the Saturday morning farmer's market, as well as concerts & festivals in the parks, and Bomboy's homemade candy & ice cream shops just a few steps from your condo. PLEASE NOTE: Ask us about the exciting street improvements currently happening in town. Come to CBC & Havre de Grace to see what all the excitement is about and learn what you've been missing!
