Mercer Island condo
643 square foot 1 bed/1bath condo located at Island Habitat on Mercer Island (on 76th). Similar size condos in MI’s downtown are listed for around $299,000, which we think is too high. Our client will be selling his unit for $275,000. Property is walking distance to grocery, restaurants, and has easy access to I-90 commutes for Downtown Seattle and Bellevue. High ceilings make for a light and airy space but features of the unit are fairly simple ”“ laminate counters, white painted cabinetry, white tile bath surround. No major updates to current styles as yet but more and more condos in this area are being renovated to add high end finishes.
Our client is having the unit painted which will give the unit a much needed emphasis on its design benefits, plus updating a few lights, new toilet, new lever style door handles, reinstalling millwork in living room and bedroom, adding cabinet handles in the kitchen, plus having the carpets cleaned. Team Reba, as part of our Concierge Services, will have the unit professionally cleaned and having the 2-story windows cleaned inside and out as well, along with adding in some light staging. Plus, we provide a 1-year home warranty for the buyer at closing. Another unit (651 sqft) in a similar style, in this association, sold for $300,000 as of 11/14/2007.
Work that the association recently has completed is installation of new Hardiplank siding for all the buildings, which also means new paint for the exterior. The buildings look great and area a lovely shade of moss green (it looks grey in this photo) and plum accent colored doors. The new paint going into our client’s unit will work in a similar color scheme with plum accent walls and a sweet cream color for the main paint color.
