Residents enjoy premium resort-style facilities including a community pool, tennis and pickleball courts, and HOA-maintained side yards that enhance the property's privacy and park-like atmosphere.
The association fee of $696 per month represents a significant recurring carrying cost that may impact overall affordability for budget-conscious buyers.
