More Insights
Built in 1989 (37 years old).
Condition: Built in 1989, this property is well-maintained and move-in ready, as stated in the description. However, the kitchen features black appliances, wood cabinets, and granite countertops, while the bathrooms have similar wood vanities and tiled surrounds. These elements, though clean and functional, reflect an aesthetic that was likely updated 15-20+ years ago, showing signs of being outdated rather than recently renovated. The carpet and tile flooring are in good condition but not new. Overall, the home is aged but maintained through regular upkeep and occasional updates, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.

Extensive Community Amenities: Residents benefit from a 5-acre lake with boats, pickleball/tennis courts, and 15 community pools and spas, enhancing the resort-like atmosphere.
Comprehensive HOA Services: The HOA provides significant value by covering roof maintenance, exterior stucco/paint, and front landscaping, ensuring low-maintenance living.
Private Patio with Mountain Views: A secluded patio offers stunning mountain views and a rare sense of privacy, perfect for entertaining or quiet enjoyment.
Move-in Ready Condition: The home is meticulously maintained with a warm, inviting interior palette, allowing for immediate occupancy without major updates.
Cons
Significant Monthly HOA Dues: The $765 monthly association fee, while inclusive of many services, represents a substantial ongoing cost that potential buyers must factor into their budget.
Condominium Structure: As a condominium, the property may offer less personal outdoor space and privacy compared to a detached home, with potential for shared wall considerations.
Original Construction Age (1989): While well-maintained, the 1989 build year suggests that some internal systems or components may be original or older, potentially requiring future upgrades or replacements not covered by the HOA.
