Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property was built in 2000 and maintains its original kitchen and bathroom configurations, including Corian countertops and maple cabinetry, which are now over 20 years old. While the home is well-maintained with a new HVAC system (2022), fresh paint, and new carpeting, it fits the 'fair' criteria as an aged home with functional but outdated major components and no significant renovations to high-value areas since construction.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Prime Golf Course Location
Ideally positioned at the end of the 16th fairway, offering unobstructed, sweeping views of the golf course and dramatic mountain panoramas.
- Versatile St. Croix Floor Plan
The highly sought-after layout includes two bedrooms plus a den and a dedicated hobby room, providing exceptional flexibility for guests or home offices.
- Private Outdoor Oasis
The rear yard is fully equipped for desert living with an extended salt-finish patio, built-in BBQ island, and a private pool and spa.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Dated Interior Finishes
The kitchen and bathrooms feature original Corian countertops and maple cabinetry from 2000, which may feel dated to modern buyers.
- Non-Turnkey Condition
The home is priced to reflect the need for further modernization, requiring additional capital investment for buyers seeking a contemporary aesthetic.
- Market Momentum
A recent price reduction of $26,000 suggests the property faced initial challenges with market absorption at its original list price.
