28th Street and Cascade Condominium

When you pull in off 28th Street, you're immediately struck by how the wooded berms and landscaping create a pocket of calm—you're steps away from everything, yet removed from the noise of it all. The seven-acre community sits right where errands and dining options converge; a grocery store is basically at your doorstep, and there are nearly 100 restaurants within a mile if you're not in the mood to cook. Modern units range from one-bedroom (around 900 square feet) to three-bedroom designs (up to 1,500 square feet), with the kind of details you notice: double-glazed windows, LED lighting, high-efficiency HVAC systems. Homes here run around $250,000, and the community includes a fitness center, outdoor pool, and clubhouse.
