More Insights

Built in 1949 (77 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1949, has undergone significant recent updates, including new paint, new stainless steel stove and dishwasher, new water heater, new tile in the kitchen and bathroom, new light fixtures, a ceiling fan, and new window screens. The refrigerator and built-in microwave are also newer. These updates make the unit move-in ready with no immediate renovations required. While the kitchen cabinets and laminate countertops are functional and clean, their style is not fully modern, and the heating/cooling systems (wall heater, window AC units) are not central. The hardwood floors are well-maintained but show some age. Overall, the property is in good, functional condition due to the recent improvements, aligning with the 'Good' criteria of being move-in ready with updated components, even if not a full recent renovation.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =224971, other record lot size in square feet = 224879.
High Monthly Association Fee: The substantial $767.0 monthly association fee could impact affordability and long-term ownership costs for potential buyers.
Single Bathroom Configuration: The presence of only one bathroom for a two-bedroom unit may present practical challenges and limit appeal for families or multiple occupants.
Low-Rated Secondary Schools: The assigned middle and high schools both have a rating of 2, which could be a significant deterrent for families prioritizing strong educational institutions.
