The Kitchen

Our kitchen has had a bit of a face lift in the last year. The stove/oven and the fridge were just recently replaced. Before that the appliances were as old as me from the mid 1980s.     

 This is the sliding glass back door. There are two decent size landings on each side of the steps for BBQ grills, bikes, etc. One of the best perks of this unit is that your assigned parking space is right out your back door and there is an extra open spot right next to the assigned spot if you have two cars. Makes unloading kids and groceries super convenient. Some units have spots that are quite the walk from the car to the house. 
Because our unit only has one bathroom we have a much larger kitchen and living room. Having one bathroom has never bothered us and we quite like having the extra living space that bathrooms take up in some of the other units.
 Another perk is the built in dishwasher. Not all units have one or if they do its a portable one that has to be hooked up to the sink to run and you can't use your sink during that time. Ours doesn't. It runs just as a normal dishwasher. 
 
 The new fridge. The cupboards to the right of the entry to the living room is a small pantry.
The door to the left is the door to the basement. The cute shelf at the top is fun to have too. The ceiling fan and lights are so nice to have. For some reason overhead lighting isn't something that was originally put into any of the units. Ours has overhead lighting and fans in all the bedrooms and the kitchen. The living room is the only room without overhead lighting.
