Condition Rating
Good

This property, built in 1970, has undergone a significant and recent renovation, making it move-in ready. The description highlights a 'meticulously updated' and 'modern kitchen' with granite countertops and a brand new range+hood. Images confirm updated stainless steel appliances, new LVP/laminate flooring throughout, and a fully modernized bathroom with a new vanity, sink, faucet, and shower surround. While the kitchen cabinets are a traditional wood tone rather than the latest style, they are well-maintained and complement the new features. The overall condition reflects an extensive renovation within the last 5-15 years, aligning perfectly with the 'Good' criteria.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Private Outdoor Oasis: Features a rare private, fenced, and gated front yard, offering an exclusive outdoor oasis for relaxation and entertaining, a significant advantage for a condo.
Turnkey & Modern Interior: Meticulously updated and move-in ready with an open-concept floor plan, a modern kitchen featuring granite countertops, new appliances, and ample storage including an oversized pantry.
Comprehensive HOA Coverage: The $471 HOA dues provide exceptional value by covering a pool, fire insurance, water, hot water, sewer, roof, exterior maintenance, landscaping, garbage, and a dedicated laundry room.
Dedicated Parking & Storage: Includes a dedicated one-car spot in a shared garage, an additional tandem spot, and two private, lockable storage areas, enhancing convenience and utility.
Quiet & Central Location: Situated in a quiet complex with a central location, offering easy access to numerous nearby dining options and community amenities.

Cons

Building Age & Compact Size: Constructed in 1970, the property is an older building, and its 810 sqft footprint is relatively compact for a two-bedroom unit, potentially limiting living space.
Shared & Tandem Parking Arrangement: While parking is provided, the shared garage and tandem spot can present daily logistical challenges and potential inconvenience for residents.
Subpar School Ratings: Despite being described as 'desirable,' the assigned public schools have ratings of 3, 4, and 6, which may not appeal to all prospective buyers, particularly families prioritizing top-tier education.
