Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1979, the property is well-maintained but significantly dated. The kitchen features older white appliances, coil-top range, and original-style cabinetry with wood trim, indicating finishes are likely over 20-30 years old. While clean and functional, the listing explicitly mentions the 'opportunity to personalize,' confirming it needs modern updates to the kitchen and baths.
High School: Las Lomas High School (9/10).

The $600 monthly association fee is relatively high, which may impact the overall affordability and debt-to-income ratio for prospective buyers.
