More Insights

Built in 1998 (28 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1998, this property has undergone extensive and high-quality renovations, evident in the gourmet chef's kitchen with premium stainless steel appliances, striking Madagascar-quarried stone island, and modern cabinetry. The bathrooms are equally luxurious, featuring contemporary white vanities, marble-look tiling, glass-enclosed showers with multiple heads, and soaking tubs. Brazilian cherry wood flooring, smart-home amenities, dual-zone climate systems, and state-of-the-art solar panels further confirm a recent and comprehensive upgrade to current luxury standards, presenting as virtually new.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 6258, other record living area = 5185. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 4, other record bedroom count = 3.
Potential for High Operating Costs: A luxury estate of this magnitude (6,258 sqft) with an infinity pool, extensive landscaping, and advanced smart home systems will inherently incur substantial ongoing maintenance, utility, and insurance expenses.
Limited Bedroom Count Relative to Square Footage: With over 6,000 square feet of living space and only 4 bedrooms, some potential buyers might find the bedroom-to-square-footage ratio less optimal for their needs, especially if they require more dedicated rooms.
Age of Core Structure: While the description highlights modern updates and finishes, the home's original construction year of 1998 means it is not a brand-new build, which could imply potential for unseen wear or systems that are not fully contemporary despite stated upgrades.
