CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- MLS Listing Discrepancy
Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =17860, other record lot size in square feet = 10454. Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 2342, other record living area = 2198.
- 1980s Architectural Era
Despite extensive remodeling, the 1989 construction may still feature original structural elements or a floor plan layout that feels less contemporary than a modern new-build home.
- Limited Community Amenities
While the $150/month HOA fee is attractively low, the small 86-home community offers fewer shared amenities compared to the larger, amenity-rich resort developments common in the area.
