Ample Parking & Storage: The property includes a two-car garage with multiple storage cabinets and washer-dryer, plus parking for two additional vehicles in the driveway, providing excellent convenience and storage solutions.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1430, other record living area = 1304.
High Monthly Association Fee: The association fee of $910.0 per month is substantial and will significantly impact the overall cost of ownership, potentially deterring some buyers.
Age of Original Construction: Built in 1973, despite numerous upgrades, the underlying structure and some original systems are over 50 years old, which could lead to future maintenance concerns not covered by recent renovations.
Age-Restricted Community: Being located within a 55+ senior community (Leisure World) restricts the potential buyer pool, which may affect market demand and resale value compared to unrestricted properties.
