Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1994 (30 years old), the property falls into the 'Fair' category based on age. While the home is well-maintained and features critical system updates like newer AC units and a hot water heater, the kitchen and bathrooms are dated, featuring older cabinetry and black appliances that reflect a 15-30 year old renovation style.
The south-facing Cayman 2 floor plan is perfectly positioned on the 9th green, offering rare, expansive views of the golf course and mountains without neighboring homes obstructing the vista.
The property includes a detached casita and is offered turnkey furnished, providing immediate move-in readiness and a private, versatile space for guests or a home office.
Newer AC units and a hot water heater provide added comfort and peace of mind, addressing major maintenance items often found in homes of this vintage.
