Despite being built in 1969, this property has undergone an extensive and high-quality renovation, bringing it to modern luxury standards. The kitchen features new white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, a farmhouse sink, modern gold-tone fixtures, and stainless steel appliances, indicative of a recent update. The primary bathroom is described as 'spa-like' with a soaking tub, bidet, and dual vanity, suggesting top-tier finishes. Wide plank wood floors, vaulted beam ceilings, and contemporary light fixtures throughout the main living areas further support a recent, comprehensive overhaul. While one bathroom image shows a slightly older tub, the overall description and visual evidence point to a property where all major components are new or virtually new, meeting current quality standards with no deferred maintenance.

Expansive Lot & Outdoor Amenities: Situated on a generous 1.2-acre lot, the property boasts a wraparound yard, fire pit, spa, lawns, fountain, and an additional 4,000+ sq ft area, providing ample space for outdoor living, recreation, and potential future expansion (e.g., pool, sport court).

Cons

Recent Price Reductions: The property has undergone multiple price reductions from its original list price of $1.65M to $1.595M, which may indicate an initial overpricing strategy or challenges in attracting buyers at previous price points.
Age of Main Structure: Despite extensive renovations, the main house was built in 1969. While updated, potential buyers may still consider the age of the underlying infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical, foundation) as a factor.
Vague School District Information: The high school district is listed as 'Other,' which lacks specific detail. For families prioritizing particular school affiliations, this ambiguity could necessitate further investigation or be perceived as a minor drawback.
