More Insights
Built in 1984 (42 years old).
Condition: Built in 1984, this property has clearly undergone significant renovations, making it move-in ready. The kitchen features updated stainless steel appliances, dark countertops, a unique copper farmhouse sink, and well-maintained light wood cabinets. While the mosaic tile backsplash in both the kitchen and bathrooms might not be the absolute latest trend, it is clean and in good condition. Bathrooms also show updated vanities, fixtures, and functional showers. The slate stone flooring throughout the main living areas and clean carpets in bedrooms contribute to a well-maintained feel. The overall aesthetic is a charming mountain chalet with modern touches. Despite the original build year, the extensive updates appear to be within the last 5-15 years, aligning with the 'Good' category criteria for a property extensively renovated within that timeframe. The primary weakness noted is the lack of an explicit cooling system, but this does not detract significantly from the overall excellent condition of the visible interior and exterior elements.

Age of Property & Systems: Built in 1984, the property's core systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) may be original or older, potentially requiring future updates or maintenance not explicitly detailed in the description.
Lack of Mentioned Cooling System: While a fireplace is highlighted for warmth, there is no mention of air conditioning or any cooling system, which could be a significant comfort concern during warmer months in Idyllwild.
Limited Customization for Furnishings: Being fully furnished and turnkey, while convenient, means a buyer has less immediate opportunity to personalize the decor and furnishings to their specific taste without additional investment and effort.
