More Insights
Built in 1948 (77 years old).
Condition: This property is in good condition, move-in ready with no immediate renovations required. While the original structure dates to 1948, a substantial 2200 sq ft addition was completed in 2003, meaning the majority of the home is 21 years old. Key modern systems like owned solar, a whole-house generator, and a tankless water heater are significant upgrades, ensuring excellent functionality and energy efficiency. The kitchen features modern stainless steel appliances, white shaker-style cabinets, and marble-look countertops, appearing well-maintained. Bathrooms are clean and functional, though their traditional styles (e.g., clawfoot tub, dark wood vanity with mosaic backsplash) are specific and not reflective of current trends. Hardwood floors are prevalent and in good shape. Overall, the property shows minimal wear and tear and is well-maintained, despite some aesthetic choices that reflect its renovation period rather than being brand new.

Pros & Cons
Pros
Exceptional Power Reliability & Energy Efficiency: Features owned solar, on-grid electric, and a whole-house generator, ensuring uninterrupted power and potential utility savings, a significant advantage in a mountain environment.
Prime Recreational Location: Strategically located a block from the zoo and Moonridge Village shops, and less than a mile from Bear Mountain Ski Resort with a free shuttle nearby, offering excellent access to amenities and activities.
Extensive Modernization & Spacious Layout: A substantial 2200 sq ft addition in 2003 expanded the home to 2737 sq ft, featuring an open floor plan, two living rooms, vaulted T&G ceilings, hardwood floors, and a convenient main-level master suite.
Robust Outdoor Entertainment Features: The backyard boasts a hot jacuzzi, patio furniture, BBQ, and an outdoor bar, complemented by a fenced yard and a front yard fountain, perfect for relaxation and hosting.
Ample Parking Capacity: Provides parking for up to 4 cars, a valuable amenity in a popular resort destination where parking can often be limited.
Cons
Original Structure Age & Potential Discrepancies: While significantly expanded in 2003, the original 500 sq ft structure dates back to 1948, which may raise questions about the condition of original systems or the seamless integration of old and new construction.
Limited Lot Size: The 4930 sq ft lot is relatively modest for a 2737 sq ft home in a mountain resort area, potentially limiting expansive outdoor living space or privacy expectations.
Recent Price Adjustment: A recent $10,000 price reduction from the original list price could suggest initial overpricing or challenges in attracting buyer interest at the previous valuation.
