More Insights

Built in 1982 (44 years old).
Condition: Built in 1982, this hacienda-style home has received significant recent updates, including a brand-new Z Line 8-burner stove, new dishwasher, new jacuzzi tub in the primary suite, a new roof, and a new water heater. These updates ensure major systems are functional and within their expected lifespan, making the property move-in ready with no immediate renovations required. While the overall aesthetic, with its solid carved rosewood cabinets, extensive wood paneling, and terracotta-style flooring, is very specific and not a modern renovation, the condition of the updated components is excellent, and the property appears well-maintained.
