Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1990, the property is over 30 years old. While well-maintained, the interior design, particularly the kitchen, features a highly unique and rustic/bohemian style with freestanding cabinets and exposed elements that are not universally considered modern or recently renovated to current luxury standards. Flooring is a mix of travertine-style tile, carpeted stairs, and some newer wood-look laminate, indicating partial updates rather than a comprehensive renovation. The absence of bathroom images prevents a full assessment, but the visible areas suggest an aged home with regular upkeep and occasional, stylized updates, fitting the 'Fair' category.
Pros & Cons
Pros
High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 271814, living area = 7995.
Great Schools: Elementary School: San Onofre Elementary School (9/10). Middle School: Mary Fay Pendleton Elementary School (9/10).
Exceptional Lot Size & Privacy: The property boasts an expansive lot of over 6.2 acres (271,814 sqft), offering immense privacy, significant space for outdoor amenities, and potential for equestrian facilities or vineyards, characteristic of the desirable La Cresta area.
Spacious Residence: With 7 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms spread across 7,995 sqft, the home provides substantial living space, ideal for large families, multi-generational living, or those desiring generous room sizes.
Prestigious La Cresta Location: Located in Murrieta's highly sought-after La Cresta community, known for its custom estates, rural charm, and high-quality lifestyle, which contributes to the property's inherent value.
Development Potential: The large acreage and existing structure offer significant potential for customization, adding luxury features such as a pool, guest house, or equestrian facilities, allowing buyers to tailor the estate to their specific desires.
Low Association Fees: A modest $90 monthly association fee is remarkably low for a property of this size and caliber within a managed community, offering good value for shared amenities or maintenance.
Cons
Significant Overpricing: The current listing price of $3.96 million is 13% higher than the estimated market value of $3.43 million, which could deter potential buyers and prolong the property's time on the market.
Age of Construction: Built in 1990, the property is over three decades old, suggesting potential needs for updates to major systems (e.g., HVAC, plumbing, electrical) and interior aesthetics to meet modern luxury market expectations.
Lack of Detailed Modern Amenities: The provided details do not highlight specific luxury upgrades or modern amenities (e.g., smart home technology, recently renovated interiors, pool, spa, specific views) that are often expected in a property of this size and price point, especially when compared to newer or more explicitly detailed comparables.
