Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1996, the property is well-maintained but largely reflects its original construction era. The kitchen and bathrooms feature dated oak cabinetry, older countertops, and 90s-style light fixtures. While the kitchen has been updated with stainless steel appliances, the home contains significant areas of dated pink carpeting and original tile work. It meets the 'fair' criteria as an aged but functional home that has not undergone a comprehensive modern renovation.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 40510, living area = 2969.
Situated on nearly an acre at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this property offers rare privacy and significant outdoor space that is difficult to find in established neighborhoods.
The absence of a Homeowners Association in the prestigious Hidden Mesa community provides owners with greater flexibility and lower monthly carrying costs, a rare find for the area.
