About this home
One of the premier units offered at Bowdoin House Condominiums. This one has it all - Two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, two fireplaces and two car parking one of which is in the garage. Unit four includes the grand staircase of the original single family home exclusively for the owner's use. And best of all unit four has a walk out to one of the largest decks you have ever seen that is exclusive use to this unit only. From the deck you overlook the parklike property with the summer house and across the street is Cedar Park where the farmer's market takes place and through the trees you can see the new Table 4 Wine Bar, Garniss's Market and the Cedar Park Train Station.

Enter an interest rate to calculate. Down payment and term are editable.
Results include principal and interest, plus property tax and HOA when MLS lists them; home and mortgage insurance and utilities are excluded. Tax uses the amount in this listing; a buyer’s actual tax may differ with reassessment or residential exemptions. The rate is your assumption, not a current market quote or loan offer.

What do these numbers mean?
DESE accountability percentiles (1–99) compare schools administering similar assessments, using up to two years of indicators. These are not test scores out of 100 or GreatSchools 1–10 ratings. Progress toward targets is a separate state measure. Consider programs, support services and your child’s needs as well.
School names link to available school or district websites.
