Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1986 (38 years old), the home is exceptionally well-maintained but remains aesthetically dated. The kitchen features older oak cabinetry and tile flooring that likely exceed the 20-year mark, despite the addition of newer stainless steel appliances. While the systems like central HVAC are functional and the home is move-in ready, it fits the 'Fair' criteria due to the age of the primary finishes and the need for cosmetic updates to meet modern standards.
The home features a highly sought-after single-story floor plan with an open-concept kitchen and seamless indoor-outdoor flow, ideal for accessibility and modern living.
A distinctive interior light well and strategically placed skylights enhance the home's ambiance, providing exceptional natural light and a versatile garden nook.
Situated on a landscaped corner lot, the property offers enhanced privacy and a curated backyard featuring plum trees, garden beds, and a custom arbor for outdoor entertaining.
At 4,748 square feet, the lot is relatively modest for the area, which may limit options for significant future expansions or large-scale outdoor activities.
The property is subject to a monthly HOA fee, which may be a drawback for buyers seeking a single-family residence without recurring association costs or oversight.
