Property is move-in ready.
Built in 1993 (31 years old), the property exceeds its age category due to excellent maintenance and key system upgrades, including a newly installed furnace and central A/C. The interior features updated flooring and stainless steel appliances. While the kitchen cabinetry and bathroom tile surfaces remain dated, the home is move-in ready and functional.
Situated in the desirable Discovery Hills community, the property offers exceptional proximity to Discovery Lake, extensive walking trails, and top-rated schools, providing an ideal lifestyle for outdoor enthusiasts and families.
The home features a newly installed central A/C system, furnace, and whole-house fan, ensuring superior energy efficiency and year-round comfort while reducing long-term maintenance concerns.
The inclusion of a 3-car garage is a significant competitive advantage for a 1,730-square-foot home, offering ample space for multiple vehicles, storage, or a potential workshop.
With a list price of $1,149,000 for 1,730 square feet, the property sits at a high price-per-square-foot threshold, which may face scrutiny compared to larger homes in the San Marcos market.
Built in 1993 and lacking mention of recent kitchen or bathroom renovations, the interior may require additional capital investment from a buyer to modernize the aesthetic to match the premium asking price.
