Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1984 (40 years old) with no evidence of recent renovations. The interior shows original 1980s cabinetry and tile, while the carpets are visibly stained and worn throughout. As a HUD foreclosure, the property likely has deferred maintenance and requires a full rehab of the kitchen, bathrooms, and flooring to be brought to modern standards.
This stand-alone condominium is uniquely situated directly on a lush greenbelt, providing tranquil views and a level of privacy rarely found in high-density housing.
The Cottage Park community is both FHA and VA approved, significantly expanding the pool of eligible buyers and offering more flexible financing options compared to many other condo developments.
At 1,519 square feet with three bathrooms for only two bedrooms, the property offers an exceptionally generous floor plan that provides more comfort and utility than standard two-bedroom units.
The association fee of $625 per month is quite high relative to the listing price, which may deter budget-conscious buyers and impact overall monthly affordability.
As a HUD property, it is typically sold in as-is condition and requires a specific bidding process, which may involve additional repair costs or less flexibility during negotiations.
