Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property is well-maintained and clean but remains largely in its original 1987 condition. While functional and move-in ready, the kitchen and bathrooms feature dated oak cabinetry, older tile work, and 1980s-era fixtures. The home has not undergone a full modern renovation, and the appliances and finishes show signs of being outdated, which aligns with the criteria for a property built over 20 years ago with no major recent updates.
Elementary School: Franklin Elementary School (9/10).
Situated in the sought-after Dobson Ranch community, this property offers residents access to a premier master-planned neighborhood known for its excellent amenities and strong market demand.
The interior features soaring ceilings and transom windows that maximize natural light and create an expansive, open atmosphere rarely found in standard townhome layouts.
With original oak cabinetry and 1980s-era styling, the home may require cosmetic updates and modern renovations to appeal to contemporary buyers looking for a turnkey finish.
The monthly association fee of $343 represents a significant recurring expense that may impact the overall affordability and debt-to-income ratio for budget-conscious purchasers.
