Built in 2003, the property is 21 years old and features original finishes. The kitchen and bathrooms, while functional and well-maintained, are dated with early-2000s oak cabinetry and tile countertops.

With a lot size of approximately 5,227 square feet, the property offers a relatively compact yard, which may limit options for extensive landscaping or large outdoor recreational activities.
The property is subject to a $180 monthly HOA fee, which adds to the recurring cost of ownership compared to similar single-family residences in the area without association requirements.
