Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Fair
TeardownExcellent

Property is moderate renovation needed.

Built in 1990, the property is well-maintained but largely reflects its original era. While the backyard is highly upgraded with a Pebble Tec pool and Alumawood patio cover, the interior features dated Corian countertops, older cabinetry, and a mix of flooring types. The bathrooms and kitchen show signs of being outdated despite being functional, fitting the criteria for a home over 30 years old that has seen regular upkeep but lacks a full modern renovation.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • Resort-Style Backyard

    The south-facing backyard is a standout feature, boasting a Pebble Tec pool and spa with three cascading waterfalls, a tanning shelf, and a large Alumawood patio cover for year-round outdoor living.

  • Spacious Primary Retreat

    The primary suite offers generous proportions and a unique double-sided fireplace that services both the bedroom and the bath area, creating a high-end, luxurious atmosphere.

  • Functional Open-Concept Layout

    With over 2,300 square feet of living space, the home features vaulted ceilings and a seamless flow between the living room and kitchen, making it ideal for both daily comfort and hosting guests.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • Dated Interior Finishes

    The presence of Corian countertops and a mix of ceramic tile, wood laminate, and carpet suggests the interior may require cosmetic updates to align with modern luxury trends.

  • Limited Bathroom Count

    For a four-bedroom residence of this size, having only two bathrooms may be a logistical challenge for larger families or those who frequently entertain overnight guests.
