Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Excellent
TeardownExcellent

Property is new construction or fully renovated.

Although built in 2003, the property has been extensively renovated within the last 5 years with no expense spared. It features modern quartz countertops throughout, updated wood flooring, and high-end kitchen finishes. The outdoor living space has been recently reimagined with a new pool, spa, and fire pit, meeting current luxury standards with no visible deferred maintenance.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • Great Schools

    Elementary School: James Monroe Elementary School (9/10).

  • Detached Casita

    The inclusion of a highly sought-after detached casita provides exceptional versatility for guest accommodations, a private home office, or enhanced rental appeal.

  • Premium Outdoor Amenities

    The recently reimagined backyard features a resort-style pool, spa, and fire pit paired with mountain views, creating an ideal environment for desert entertaining.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • High Density Layout

    Fitting five bedrooms into 2,424 square feet may result in smaller individual room dimensions, which could feel cramped for buyers seeking larger primary suites.

  • Aging Core Systems

    While cosmetically updated, the 2003 construction suggests that original major mechanical systems or the roof may be approaching the end of their typical functional lifespan.
