Picture the elevator doors opening on the fifth floor, and past your own front door, the Dayton skyline spreads out under open sky. That view alone changes how a Tuesday evening feels. Welcome to Unit #51 at Carillon House, 2230 S. Patterson Blvd. This 1,300+ square foot condo gives you 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, room enough for a home office, guests, or a growing family, without the upkeep of a house. Here is the honest part, because you deserve that. This unit has been well cared for. The systems have been maintained, the space has been respected, and nothing here has been neglected. What it does need is a cosmetic refresh: paint, flooring, an updated kitchen, bath, and air handler. This is the kind of work that lets you put your own stamp on a solid foundation instead of paying someone else's markup for finishes you may not even like. If today's interest rates have you doing the math on a fixer versus a finished home, this is where that math often works in your favor. Your monthly HOA of $730 covers heat, air conditioning, water, trash, snow removal, lawn care, and access to a heated outdoor pool, a fitness room, sauna, a library, attached heated garage, indoor car wash, and a full penthouse entertaining space for up to 90 guests. One assigned garage parking spot keeps your car out of the weather. Step outside, and you are close to the Carillon Historical Park and Bell Tower, the bike path along the Great Miami River, 3 country clubs’ minutes away, and a public golf course less than a mile out. A well-maintained condo waiting for your updates with a view like this, has a lot to offer for the right buyer. Call or text to schedule your private showing.
