Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1985, this 39-year-old townhome is dated and lacks recent major renovations. While the living area features some flooring updates, the bedrooms show older carpeting and mirrored closets typical of the original construction era. The listing explicitly mentions 'room to update' and 'opportunity to build equity,' indicating it is functional but requires cosmetic modernization to meet current market standards.
Elementary School: Doyle Elementary School (9/10). High School: University City High School (9/10).

The home is zoned for exceptionally high-rated schools, including Doyle Elementary and University City High, which provides significant long-term value and appeal for families.
