About this home

Tucked into the heart of charming Pennington Borough, this one-bedroom Academy Court condo puts shops, dining, and everyday errands right outside your door. Step inside to a bright, open layout where the living and dining areas flow easily into a well equipped kitchen, complete with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and plenty of cabinet space. The generously sized bedroom includes a dressing closet, and the full bath is clean and comfortably scaled. Practical perks round out the unit: in unit laundry, elevator access, intercom entry, basement storage, and open parking all make day to day living simple. The real showstopper is the oversized private terrace, a quiet, tucked away retreat overlooking the courtyard that gives you a rare extra room to enjoy outdoors. Whether you are buying your first home, looking to downsize, or searching for a smart investment, this one checks the boxes for location, ease, and lasting value. Some photos are virtually staged.
