More Insights

Built in 1985 (41 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1985, is impeccably maintained and move-in ready, but key areas like the kitchen and bathrooms show signs of being outdated. The kitchen features tiled countertops and backsplash, which are a dated style, despite having newer stainless steel appliances. Bathrooms are clean and functional but also reflect an older aesthetic. While some flooring has been updated to wood-look laminate, other areas retain older tile and carpet. These elements suggest the home has been well-kept with occasional updates, but a full modern renovation has not occurred recently, aligning with the 'Fair' category where major components are functional but show signs of being outdated and may require minor aesthetic updates.

The spacious primary bathroom offers dual sinks and ample comfort. Upstairs, a private bedroom/loft with its own full bathroom provides a perfect guest retreat, office, or creative space. And then—the views. Commanding, unobstructed, and unforgettable. From sparkling city lights to rolling valleys and majestic mountains, this home captures it all. Located within the beautifully landscaped 484-acre Casta del Sol community, residents enjoy mature trees, gentle hills, and an unparalleled resort-style lifestyle. The association offers two recreation centers with amenities including pickleball, tennis, pools, spa/hot tubs, fitness center, lawn bowling, sport courts, clubhouse, billiard room, and more.
