Condition Rating
Good

This condominium, built in 1991, is explicitly described as 'move-in ready' and the images support this. Key updates include engineered wood and tile flooring, stainless steel appliances, and granite countertops in the kitchen. While the kitchen cabinets appear to be an older style (light wood, raised panel), they are well-maintained and functional. The overall property is clean, bright, and shows minimal wear and tear. The central A/C & heating and full-sized washer/dryer are modern conveniences. Although the kitchen cabinets prevent an 'Excellent' rating, the significant updates and overall well-maintained condition make it a solid 'Good' property, requiring no immediate renovations.

Cons

Age-Restricted Community (62+): The property is located within a 62+ community, which significantly narrows the potential buyer demographic and could impact resale liquidity.
Exorbitant Monthly HOA Dues: The monthly association fee of $3,984.00 is exceptionally high, representing a substantial ongoing financial commitment that may deter many prospective buyers.
Recent Price Reduction: A notable price drop from $575,000 to $520,000 suggests potential challenges in market absorption or initial overpricing, which could raise buyer concerns.
