Age of Original Construction: While extensively remodeled in 2020, the property's original construction year of 1979 means the underlying structure is over 40 years old, potentially raising concerns about un-renovated components or future maintenance.
Condominium Lifestyle Limitations: As a condominium, the property entails shared walls and a smaller private outdoor space (patio only), which may not appeal to buyers seeking greater privacy or a larger, private yard.
