Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1982, this townhome is well-maintained and move-in ready but retains several outdated features. While the kitchen cabinets have been painted and the bathroom vanity updated with a stone top, the laminate countertops, popcorn ceilings, and older shelving units reflect its age. The flooring has been updated to a modern wood-look laminate, and the inclusion of functional central AC and a gas fireplace supports a 'fair' rating as a property that is functional but would benefit from further cosmetic modernization.
Located in a secure gated community, the property offers excellent lifestyle perks including a pool, heated spa, basketball court, and dog-friendly spaces, with water costs included in the HOA.
The home boasts high walkability to Lindo Lake, local schools, and downtown Lakeside attractions like Mary's Donuts, combined with easy freeway access for commuters.
This unit is well-equipped with central AC, a gas fireplace, and all appliances included, plus the significant advantage of two parking spaces including a carport with storage.
The 1.5-bath configuration may be a drawback for small families or roommates who would prefer a second full shower or tub.
Built in 1982, the property may require cosmetic modernization or system updates to compete with newer developments in the area.
