Condition Rating
Good
Despite being built in 1953, this property has undergone significant and recent renovations, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen features modern shaker-style cabinets, light solid-surface countertops, a stylish herringbone tile backsplash, and contemporary stainless steel appliances. The bathroom boasts a modern vanity, solid-surface top, and a glass-enclosed shower with marble-look tile. Flooring is a mix of modern dark wood-look tile and clean carpet. The description also notes a 'newer A/C unit' and solar systems. While not a brand-new build, the extensive updates make it move-in ready with a modern aesthetic, aligning with the 'Good' category's criteria for properties extensively renovated within 5 to 15 years.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Exquisite Panoramic Views: The property boasts 'exquisite views' including City Lights, Hills, Mountains, and Neighborhood vistas, explicitly highlighted as a major selling point.
Spacious & Family-Oriented Layout: With 3,206 sqft, 5 bedrooms, and 4 baths, including 3 bedrooms conveniently located downstairs, this home is ideal for a large family or multi-generational living.
Energy Efficiency & Modern Updates: Includes two solar systems, updated kitchen and baths, tile flooring, and a newer A/C unit, contributing to lower utility costs and a contemporary living experience.
Favorable Ownership Costs: The property benefits from no HOA fees and low taxes, significantly reducing the overall cost of homeownership.
Convenient Location: Strategically located minutes from Hwy. 78 and approximately 11 miles from the beach, offering excellent accessibility and proximity to coastal amenities.
Cons
Age of Property: Built in 1953, despite mentioned updates, the underlying structure is older, which may raise concerns about potential maintenance or the condition of un-updated systems.
Limited Outdoor Living Details: While the lot size is 11,400 sqft and views are prominent, the description lacks specific details about developed outdoor living spaces (e.g., large patio, deck, extensive landscaping) that would complement the views and interior size.
Varying School Ratings: Some nearby schools have moderate to lower ratings (e.g., Rancho Minerva Middle School at 3/10, Hannalei Elementary at 4/10), which could be a consideration for families prioritizing top-tier educational institutions.
