Resort-Style Outdoor Living: Features a private saltwater pool/spa with updated glass gates, a spacious south-facing patio, and spectacular Santa Rosa mountain views, perfect for entertaining and enjoying the desert lifestyle.
Cons
Ongoing Maintenance Costs: The large lot, private saltwater pool/spa, and detached casita will require consistent maintenance and incur associated costs, which could be a consideration for some buyers.
Age of Core Systems: While cosmetic updates are highlighted, the property was built in 2000, and there is no explicit mention of recent updates to major systems like HVAC, plumbing, or roofing, which may be nearing their typical lifespan.
Potential for High Utility Bills: Despite owned solar, a large home with a private pool and spa in a desert climate can still lead to significant electricity consumption, particularly during peak summer months, impacting overall utility costs.
