More Insights
Built in 1996 (30 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1996, this property has undergone an extensive and recent renovation, as highlighted by the 'bold designer choices' and 'state-of-the-art' amenities. The kitchen features high-end integrated appliances, sleek modern cabinetry, and contemporary finishes. Bathrooms are fully updated with modern fixtures, frameless glass showers, and stylish tiling. Throughout the home, light wide-plank hardwood flooring, modern lighting, and luxurious features like a movie theater, golf simulator, and spa room indicate that all components are virtually new and meet current luxury standards with no visible deferred maintenance.

Subjective Interior Design: The 'bold designer choices' and 'dynamic wallpaper coverings' may be a matter of personal taste, potentially requiring redecoration for buyers seeking a different aesthetic.
High Ongoing Maintenance & Utility Costs: The extensive luxury features such as the infinity pool, spa, golf simulator, and gourmet outdoor kitchen will inherently incur significant ongoing maintenance and utility expenses.
