Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Location & Views: Situated on a quiet cul-de-sac in desirable Fox Farm, backing to open acreage for a 'forest/mountain' feel, and offering scenic/panoramic views of tall pine trees. Proximity to lake, skiing, hiking, village, and shopping centers further enhances its appeal.
Extensive Modern Upgrades: Features a recently remodeled kitchen with luxurious black quartz countertops and stainless-steel appliances, new deck, new energy-efficient pellet fireplace, recessed LED lighting, and new attractive tile & wood flooring.
Luxurious Master Suite Amenities: The large master bedroom boasts a gas fireplace, bay windows, a new custom-installed 2-person jacuzzi bath, and a large 4-seat steam shower room with a skylight, offering a spa-like retreat.
Abundant & Flexible Living Spaces: Includes two distinct living areas with fireplaces, a separate dining area for large gatherings, a large den/TV area easily convertible to a 5th bedroom, and a 6th bonus room ideal for kids, providing ample space for various needs.
Detached Multi-Purpose Unit: An additional 640 sqft detached unit with many windows offers significant versatility, suitable for conversion into a game room or indoor parking for an RV or boat, adding substantial functional value.

Cons

Significant Price Discrepancy: The current listing price of $950,000 is considerably higher than the property's estimated value of $386,665.725, suggesting a potential overvaluation that could impact marketability and buyer interest.
Absence of Central Air Conditioning: While equipped with a new heater and air purifier, the property description does not mention a cooling system, which could be a comfort concern during warmer periods, especially for a 'dream vacation home'.
Age of Core Structure: Despite extensive remodels, the home was built in 1989. While many elements are new, potential buyers might have concerns about the age of underlying infrastructure (e.g., original plumbing, electrical, roof structure not explicitly mentioned as replaced) compared to newer constructions.
