Extensive Custom Upgrades & Modern Finishes: This customized Plan 1 features a gourmet kitchen with custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, an oversized island, Bosch appliances, and additional upgrades like custom automatic blinds and warm modern finishes throughout.
Advanced Energy Efficiency: Equipped with brand-new owned solar (15 panels) and a Tesla Powerwall 3 (installed November 2025), this home offers significant long-term energy efficiency and value.

Inclusive HOA & Golf Perks: HOA dues cover internet, cable, water, pest control, and trash, plus exclusive owner perks including unlimited use of the Desert Willow driving range and access to the Golf Academy.

Cons

High Monthly HOA Dues: The monthly association fee of $608.79, while inclusive of many services and amenities, represents a significant ongoing cost that may deter some buyers.
Delayed Full Energy Benefit: The Tesla Powerwall 3, a major energy upgrade, is scheduled for installation in November 2025, meaning the full benefits of this system are not immediately available upon purchase.
Condominium Ownership Structure: As a condominium, despite private outdoor spaces, the property is subject to shared walls and community regulations, which may not appeal to buyers seeking complete autonomy or a detached single-family home.
