The property sits on a sizable plot of 1,025.63 square meters, offering significant outdoor space and potential.
Key features and agent notes have been translated for clarity. The property includes a 31.42 square meter attached garage, providing covered parking. Special notes indicate that termites were found approximately five years ago, but a full extermination and preventative anti-termite treatment was conducted. The property will be delivered with any remaining items removed. It is important to note that the building area is based on the current registry, and a title change registration is in process, meaning this figure may be updated. The boundary will be delivered as non-explicit, and a list of attached equipment will not be provided. The current occupancy status is occupied, with handover conditions open for consultation. The building-to-land ratio is a low 20%. A notable landmark is the shopping center VIO, located 3.3km away.
