The home features a gourmet kitchen with premium appliances, high ceilings, and a spacious primary suite with a soaking tub, providing a contemporary and luxurious living experience.
Connected only at the garage wall, the residence functions like a detached home with windows on all sides, ensuring an abundance of natural light and significantly more privacy than a standard townhouse.

The $400 monthly HOA fee adds a significant recurring cost to the ownership profile, which may impact the budget for buyers comparing this to fee-simple single-family homes.
