Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1988 (36 years old), the property is dated and exceeds the 20-year threshold for a 'Good' rating without a recent full renovation. While it features granite countertops and was termite tented in 2023, the long-term tenant occupancy and original 1980s elements like the carpeting and fixtures suggest it needs minor repairs and cosmetic updates to meet modern standards.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Scenic Privacy
Situated on a private flag lot within the exclusive Olive Hills pocket, the property offers serene mountain views and a gated, terraced garden for ultimate tranquility.
- Exceptional Parking
Rare for the area, this home provides a spacious two-car garage plus additional off-street parking for approximately four vehicles, ideal for guests or multi-car households.
- Architectural Appeal
The interior features vaulted ceilings and plantation shutters that maximize natural light, complemented by a modern kitchen with granite countertops and premium Jenn-Air appliances.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Potential Deferred Maintenance
Having been tenant-occupied for many years, the property may require cosmetic refreshing or minor updates to meet the standards of a primary residence buyer.
- Modest School Ratings
While located in a quiet neighborhood, the local elementary and middle schools carry lower performance ratings, which may impact appeal for education-focused families.
