Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1982, this property is in functional condition but shows significant signs of age. The kitchen features dated white appliances and older cabinetry, while the bathrooms retain older tile and fixtures. Although some flooring has been updated to laminate, the overall aesthetic and major components reflect a lack of recent comprehensive renovation, placing it firmly in the 'fair' category as a well-maintained but outdated unit.
Priced competitively at $275,000 in the high-demand Tempe market, this townhouse offers an excellent entry point for first-time buyers or investors seeking rental income.
The split floorplan maximizes privacy and utility, featuring an inside laundry room and a master suite with a spacious walk-in closet.
The property includes two rare covered parking spaces and provides access to community amenities including a swimming pool and expansive common grounds.
At 884 square feet, the living space is relatively compact for a two-bedroom unit, which may feel restrictive for some buyers.
The assigned elementary, middle, and high schools all carry lower performance ratings, which could be a deterrent for families prioritizing education.
