More Insights

Built in 1975 (51 years old).
Condition: Built in 1975, this property has undergone significant recent cosmetic updates, making it move-in ready. The kitchen features brand new stainless steel appliances, refreshed light grey cabinetry, new white quartz countertops, and upgraded lighting, giving it a modern and functional appeal. Bathrooms also show recent updates with modern vanities, fixtures, and clean finishes. New light-colored laminate/LVP flooring extends throughout the main living areas and bedrooms. While these updates are substantial, the presence of popcorn ceilings and older laundry appliances indicates it hasn't received a full, top-to-bottom renovation within the last 5 years, and the underlying infrastructure is still from 1975. It fits the 'Good' criteria of being move-in ready with well-maintained, updated systems in key areas, without being a brand new or fully gut-renovated property.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 2.
Age of Construction: Built in 1975, the property's underlying infrastructure may be older, potentially requiring future maintenance or updates beyond the cosmetic refreshes.
Monthly HOA Dues: The $396.0 monthly association fee represents a significant recurring cost that buyers must factor into their budget.
Condominium Lifestyle & Compact Size: As a condominium, it involves shared walls and potentially less private outdoor space than a detached home. At 1339 sqft for a 3-bedroom, it may feel compact for some buyers, particularly families.
