More Insights

Built in 1982 (44 years old).
Condition: Built in 1982, this property has received significant functional updates including a newer roof, 3-year-old AC systems, and solar panels. However, the interior, particularly the kitchen, features dated elements such as original-style wooden cabinets, tiled countertops, and a mix of older and newer appliances. While functional and well-maintained, the kitchen and likely the bathrooms would require substantial cosmetic updates to align with current design trends and buyer expectations. The property is aged but maintained, with major components functional but showing signs of being outdated, fitting the 'Fair' condition criteria.

Age of Property: Built in 1982, despite some major system updates, other components such as plumbing, electrical, or windows might be original or older, which could lead to unforeseen maintenance or upgrade costs down the line.
High Maintenance/Utility Costs for Pool/Spa: The presence of a large pool and in-ground spa, while an attractive amenity, can incur significant ongoing costs for maintenance, chemicals, water, and increased utility bills, which may deter some potential buyers.
