Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1995, this condo is well-maintained and move-in ready, but the kitchen and bathroom styles show their age. While the kitchen features granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, the wood cabinetry and ceiling fan are dated. The bathroom also has a granite-look counter but an older light fixture and shower doors. The property is functional and clean, but requires minor updates to meet current aesthetic standards, aligning with a 'Fair' condition.
Pros & Cons
Pros
FHA & VA Approved: The property is FHA and VA approved, significantly broadening the potential buyer pool and making it accessible to a wider range of financing options.
Comprehensive Community Amenities: Residents benefit from extensive community amenities including a pool, spa, fitness center, clubhouse, playground, and a video surveillance system for enhanced security.
In-Unit Laundry & Modern Kitchen: The condo features the highly desirable convenience of an in-unit washer and dryer, complemented by a kitchen with granite countertops and ample cabinetry.
Convenient Location & Accessibility: Strategically located minutes from Parkway Plaza and major freeways, offering easy access to shopping, dining, and transportation.
Dedicated Parking & Inclusive HOA: The unit includes one covered carport plus an additional parking space, a valuable asset for a condo, with HOA fees covering water, trash, and common-area maintenance.
Cons
Compact Living Space: With only 1 bedroom, 1 bath, and 597 sqft, the property offers limited living space, which may restrict its appeal to individuals or couples without children.
Elevated HOA Dues: The monthly association fee of $464.0 is relatively high for a 1-bedroom unit, potentially impacting affordability and overall investment yield.
Ambiguous View Description: While the description mentions a 'breathtaking view of the surrounding greenery,' the property's listed 'view' is 'Courtyard,' which might imply a less expansive or premium outlook than initially suggested.
