More Insights
Built in 2002 (23 years old).
Condition: Built in 2002, this property is 22 years old and appears to retain many of its original finishes. The kitchen features dated light wood cabinets and what appear to be laminate countertops, consistent with early 2000s construction. Similarly, the bathrooms, particularly the master, show dated light wood vanities, standard tile flooring, and builder-grade fixtures. While the home is clean, well-maintained, and move-in ready, the aesthetic of key areas like the kitchen and bathrooms is outdated and would benefit from cosmetic updates to meet current styles. Major systems appear functional, but the property has not undergone a significant recent renovation.

Pros & Cons
Pros
Great Schools: Elementary School: Alamos Elementary School (9/10). High School: Chaparral High School (9/10).
Exceptional Space & Multi-Generational Suitability: This expansive 8-bedroom, 5-bathroom home spanning 4,666 sqft is perfectly designed for oversized or multi-generational families, featuring dedicated 2-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom in-law/guest quarters on the main level.
Highly Versatile Bonus Rooms: The property offers significant flexible living space with a giant finished bonus room on the 3rd floor (suitable for office, meeting, or entertainment) and a large loft on the 2nd floor (ideal for an office or sitting room).
Ample Parking Capacity: A substantial attached 4-car garage combined with plenty of additional driveway parking provides exceptional convenience for multiple vehicles, a significant asset for a large household.
Luxurious Primary Suite: The massive primary suite is a highlight, featuring dual sinks, a huge soaking tub, a separate shower, and two walk-in closets, offering a private and comfortable retreat.
Convenient Location: The home is ideally located minutes away from top-rated schools, parks, and a shopping mall, with easy access to freeways, enhancing daily convenience and lifestyle.
Cons
Significant Overpricing: The current listing price of $849,000 is considerably higher than the estimated property value of $668,643 and a very similar comparable property listed at $784,400, suggesting potential overvaluation in the current market.
Limited Outdoor Space/Amenities: Despite its large interior, the property description does not highlight significant outdoor living features or a substantial backyard, which might be a concern for buyers seeking outdoor recreation space, especially given the 6,534 sqft lot size for an 8-bedroom home.
Lack of Described Views: The property explicitly states 'view: None,' which could be a missed opportunity for added value, especially in a region where desirable views often enhance property appeal and marketability.
