Condition Rating
Good
The property, built in 1995, presents as move-in ready with recent updates. The kitchen features white shaker-style cabinets, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, though the backsplash has a slightly dated mosaic pattern. Vinyl plank flooring and fresh neutral paint throughout, along with modern ceiling fans, contribute to a well-maintained and updated feel. While not a brand-new build, the extensive updates and overall clean condition align with a 'Good' score, indicating no immediate renovations are required.
Pros & Cons

Move-in Ready & Modern Updates: The condo is described as 'move-in ready' with recent updates including vinyl plank flooring, fresh neutral interior paint, an updated kitchen, and in-unit stacked washer/dryer, providing immediate comfort and modern appeal.
Comprehensive Community Amenities: Located in a gated, VA & FHA approved community, residents benefit from fantastic amenities such as a pool, spa, fitness center, and playground, enhancing lifestyle and property value.
HOA Fee Inclusions: The HOA fees conveniently cover essential services like water, sewer, trash, and grounds maintenance, simplifying budgeting and reducing out-of-pocket expenses for residents.

Private Outdoor Space & Parking: The unit includes a private deck overlooking serene tree-lined surroundings, offering a peaceful outdoor retreat, complemented by two assigned parking spaces for convenience.
Cons
High Monthly HOA Fees: The association fee of $520.0 per month is relatively high, which could impact overall affordability and monthly housing costs for potential buyers.
Limited Square Footage: With 801 square feet for a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom unit, the living space is on the smaller side, which might be a constraint for some buyers seeking more expansive interiors.
Mixed Local School Ratings: While schools are accessible, some nearby public schools have lower ratings (e.g., 3/10), which could be a consideration for families prioritizing top-tier educational institutions.
