Condition Rating
Fair
The property, built in 1989, is 35 years old. While the listing describes it as 'immaculate, move-in ready' with 'stylish baseboards' and fresh paint, the images reveal that the kitchen and bathrooms are significantly dated in style. The kitchen features white cabinets, older white appliances, and what appears to be original or older laminate/tile countertops, along with beige tiled flooring. The bathroom also has white cabinets, older countertops, and beige tiled flooring, consistent with late 80s/early 90s aesthetics. These areas, while clean and functional, show clear signs of being outdated and would require minor to moderate updates to meet current buyer expectations for style and features. The property's age also suggests that major systems may be nearing the end of their expected lifespan, as noted in the property analysis weakness. This combination of good maintenance but outdated key areas places it firmly in the 'Fair' category.
Pros & Cons
Pros
High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 8276, living area = 1804.
Exceptional Privacy & Location: Situated on an oversized cul-de-sac lot within the peaceful, gated community of Parc La Quinta, featuring a large, private yard with no direct neighbor views.
Immaculate, Move-in Ready Condition: The home is described as being in 'immaculate, move-in ready condition,' minimizing immediate buyer expenses and effort.
Desirable Mountain Views: The property offers attractive mountain views, enhancing its aesthetic appeal and overall desirability.
Significant Price Reduction: A substantial price reduction from the original $595,000 to $525,000 presents a potential value opportunity for buyers.
Proximity to Highly-Rated Schools: The property is conveniently located near well-rated elementary, middle, and high schools, a significant advantage for families.
Cons
Listing Price Exceeds Estimated Value: The current list price is 14% higher than the property's estimated value, which may raise concerns about market value and potential overpricing.
Ongoing Association Fees: The presence of a $180 monthly association fee adds to the recurring costs of homeownership.
Property Age and Potential System Updates: Built in 1989, the home is over three decades old, which could imply a need for future updates or replacements of major systems (e.g., HVAC, roof, plumbing) despite its current 'immaculate' cosmetic condition.
