More Insights

Built in 1950 (76 years old).
Condition: The main home was built in 1950, and while some areas like certain bedrooms and one bathroom appear to have received recent cosmetic updates (new flooring, paint, modern shower), the kitchen is significantly outdated with white laminate countertops, older white cabinets, and linoleum flooring. Other bathrooms also feature older wooden vanities and fixtures. The terracotta tile in the main living areas is also a dated feature. The property is functional but requires substantial modernization in key areas, particularly the kitchen and some bathrooms, to meet current standards, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =2279930, other record lot size in square feet = 339607.
Age of Primary Residence: The main home was built in 1950, suggesting it may require significant modernization or renovation to align with current luxury standards expected for a property of this caliber and price point.
Modest Main Home Square Footage: The 2061 sqft main residence is relatively small for a multi-million dollar 'legacy estate' on 53 acres, indicating that the primary value lies in the land and views rather than the existing structure.
Unverified Subdivision Potential: While subdivision into three parcels is highlighted, the 'Buyer to verify with County' clause implies this is not a pre-approved entitlement, introducing a level of risk and due diligence for prospective buyers.
