Pros & Cons
Pros
Move-in Ready & Modernized Interiors: The property is described as 'Move in Ready' with upgraded baths and kitchen, and a 'Light and Bright, Clean' aesthetic, minimizing immediate renovation needs for a buyer.
Updated Major Systems & Appliances: Recent replacements include the furnace and hot water heater (within 3 years), and almost new kitchen appliances (within 3 months), significantly reducing immediate capital expenditures.
Desirable Natural Setting: Located within the 'peace and quiet of the Lakewood Village community' and 'Surrounded by the nature of the Don Castro Regional Recreation Area,' offering a serene and appealing environment.
Functional Living Space: The property offers a comfortable 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath, 1720 sq ft layout, providing ample space for various household needs.
Ample Parking: Includes a 1-car detached garage plus a carport, offering convenient and covered parking options, which is a valuable amenity.
Cons
Significant Monthly Association Fee: A substantial $510.0 monthly association fee adds a considerable ongoing cost to homeownership, impacting affordability.
Limited Private Outdoor Space: As a townhouse with a small lot size (1362 sq ft), the property likely offers minimal private outdoor area, which may not appeal to buyers seeking a larger yard.
Recent Price Reduction: The property has seen a recent price drop from $735,000 to $725,000, which could indicate initial overpricing or market resistance.
