Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is move-in ready.
This expansive estate, built in 1985, is exceptionally well-maintained and move-in ready. While the main residence features a classic Spanish style with Saltillo tile floors and a kitchen with stylistically dated blue and white tiled countertops and backsplash (though with updated stainless steel appliances), the property also includes a fully independent second residence that appears to have been extensively and recently renovated with modern finishes, including a contemporary kitchen with blue cabinetry, white quartz countertops, and modern bathrooms. The overall property condition, including the resort-style amenities and architectural integrity, is very high, preventing a 'Fair' rating, despite some dated elements in the main house's kitchen. The property does not require immediate renovation due to disrepair, but rather some aesthetic updates in the main house for those preferring a more contemporary style.
