Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property was completely rebuilt in 2003, making the major systems and structure 21 years old. While the home is exceptionally well-maintained with functional upgrades like dual AC and a tankless water heater, the kitchen and bathrooms feature dated honey-oak cabinetry and tile work consistent with early 2000s aesthetics, placing it in the 'Fair' category based on the 15-30 year renovation bracket.

Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 5, other record bedroom count = 4.
Given the large home footprint and extensive pool/patio features on a 6,000 sqft lot, there is very little traditional green space or lawn area remaining for pets or children's play.
Despite the second-story balcony and premium price point, the property lacks any significant territorial or scenic views, which may be a consideration for buyers seeking a specific vista.
