Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Good
TeardownExcellent

Property is move-in ready.

Built in 2004, this home is in remarkably well-maintained, move-in ready condition due to light seasonal use. While the kitchen and bathrooms retain original 2004 features like tile countertops and white appliances, the property shows minimal wear and tear, featuring clean tile flooring and a pristine outdoor pool area.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • Pristine Condition

    Maintained as a seasonal retreat since 2009, the home exhibits remarkably light wear on major systems and appliances, offering a near-new feel for a 2004 build.

  • Outdoor Living Oasis

    The property features a private walled front courtyard and an exceptionally secluded rear yard with a pool and spa, ideal for resort-style desert living.

  • Superior Floor Plan

    The 1,778 sq. ft. open layout provides excellent privacy with separated bedrooms, all of which uniquely feature generous walk-in closets.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • MLS Listing Discrepancy

    Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1778, other record living area = 1937.

  • Compact Lot Size

    The 5,227 sq. ft. lot is relatively small, which may feel restrictive for buyers looking for expansive yard space or significant gardening opportunities.

  • Aging Infrastructure

    Despite light use, the home's original 2004 mechanical systems and roof are reaching the 20-year mark, which may necessitate near-term capital improvements.
