Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is move-in ready.
The property is move-in ready and features significant modern updates that exceed its 2001 build year. The kitchen has been renovated with high-end Quartzite countertops, custom cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances. Additionally, the outdoor living space is extensively upgraded with a custom lighted patio, BBQ island, and pool/spa. While the home is over 20 years old, these renovations and the overall well-maintained condition of the interior and systems align with the 'Good' classification.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Great Schools
Elementary School: James Monroe Elementary School (9/10).
- Premier Outdoor Entertainment Space
The backyard is a desert oasis featuring a custom lighted patio, a BBQ island with a pop-up TV, a built-in space heater, and a private pool and spa, ideal for year-round hosting.
- Versatile and Modern Interior
This 3,000 sq. ft. home offers a highly functional layout with a private primary suite, a flexible loft, and a bonus room, plus a high-end kitchen featuring Quartzite countertops and custom cabinetry.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- MLS Listing Discrepancy
Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 4, other record bedroom count = 3.
- Aging Major Systems
Built in 2001, the property is over 20 years old, meaning original infrastructure like the roof or HVAC systems may be nearing the end of their typical lifespan despite interior cosmetic upgrades.
- Inconsistent School Ratings
While the elementary school is top-rated at a 9/10, the assigned middle school carries a lower rating of 5/10, which may be a concern for families prioritizing long-term educational consistency.
