Condition: This listing is for a vacant lot with approved plans for a future home, not an existing structure. The 'Year Built: 2025' indicates a projected completion date. As there is no existing house, kitchen, or bathrooms to evaluate, and the property is currently unlivable with its value based solely on the land and its potential for redevelopment, it aligns with the 'tear-down' classification.

Cons

Construction Required: The property is a lot with plans, not a completed home, requiring the buyer to undertake and manage the entire construction process.
Significant Hard Costs: While soft costs are covered, the substantial hard costs of building a 4,800 sqft luxury home are still the buyer's responsibility, in addition to the purchase price of the land and plans.
Future Value Contingency: The final market value and appeal of the property are contingent on the quality of construction and finishes chosen by the buyer, introducing an element of future market risk.
