Key features include a remodeled kitchen with granite countertops and maple cabinetry, updated bathrooms with dual sinks, and modern infrastructure such as central HVAC, dual-pane windows, and recessed lighting.

  • High Monthly HOA Fees

    The association fee of $909.59 per month represents a significant recurring carrying cost that may impact the budget of some prospective buyers.

  • Aging Infrastructure

    Built in 1973, the property may require ongoing attention to original plumbing or electrical components not covered by the recent cosmetic and HVAC upgrades.
