The property is move-in ready and well-maintained with significant recent capital improvements, including a new HVAC system and water heater.

The bathrooms have been modernized, and the home shows minimal wear with fresh exterior paint and low-maintenance landscaping.
The property is exceptionally well-located within walking distance to elementary, middle, and high schools, as well as multiple community parks and local shopping centers.
Significant high-ticket upgrades including a new AC/HVAC system, a brand-new water heater, and updated bathrooms provide immediate value and reduce near-term maintenance costs.
Positioned on a corner lot with south-facing windows and soaring cathedral ceilings, the home offers a bright, airy atmosphere that enhances the overall sense of space.
With a lot size of only 2,500 square feet, the outdoor space is relatively limited, which may be a drawback for buyers seeking a large private backyard or room for a pool.
At 1,470 square feet for a $1.099M listing price, the property sits at a high price point relative to its interior size, potentially limiting its appeal to value-focused buyers.
