Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property is exceptionally well-maintained and move-in ready, but it retains many original or older features consistent with its 1979 construction. While the primary bathroom has been tastefully upgraded with a modern walk-in shower and newer tiling, the kitchen is dated, featuring white tile countertops with visible grout lines and older white appliances, including an electric coil cooktop. The presence of plantation shutters and updated flooring in the living areas is a plus, but the overall aesthetic and the age of the major systems and kitchen components align with the 'fair' criteria for a home that is functional but shows signs of being outdated.
The south-facing tiled back patio provides exceptional, unobstructed views of the fairway and mountains, offering a premium desert living experience.
