More Insights

Built in 1985 (41 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1985, is well-maintained and functional but shows significant signs of being outdated, particularly in the kitchen and bathroom. The kitchen features original-style wood cabinets, tile countertops, and older appliances (except for a seemingly newer dishwasher and microwave). The bathroom also has dated tile countertops and basic fixtures. While move-in ready, it requires minor cosmetic updates to meet current aesthetic standards, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria for a home built over 20 years ago with no major renovations since construction or an older renovation.

Compact Living Space: At 622 square feet, the unit offers limited living area, which may not suit all buyers or provide flexibility for future needs.
High Monthly Association Fees: The $620 monthly association fee is substantial for a 1-bedroom condo, adding a significant ongoing cost to homeownership.
Single Bedroom Configuration: As a 1-bedroom unit, its appeal is limited to a specific buyer demographic (singles, couples) and may have less long-term resale flexibility compared to properties with more bedrooms.
