Condition Rating
Fair
The property was built in 1988, making it 36 years old. While the listing mentions a 'BRAND NEW ROOF' and 'HVAC certification,' indicating some major system updates, the interior finishes, particularly the kitchen and bathrooms, appear largely original or from an older renovation (15-30 years ago). The kitchen features dated wood cabinets, white tile countertops, and an older electric range, though the dishwasher and microwave seem more recent. The bathrooms also show older fixtures and finishes. The flooring is a mix of worn carpet and older tile, with some rooms having updated laminate/wood-look flooring. The overall condition is maintained and functional, but the aesthetic and some components are clearly outdated, requiring minor updates to meet current buyer expectations. This aligns with the 'fair' category, where the home is aged but maintained, and major components are functional but show signs of being outdated.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Exceptional Golf Course & Lake Views: The property boasts stunning, rare views of Singing Hills Golf Course and a lake from the backyard, a significant advantage over most homes in the community.
Gated Community with Amenities: Located within the desirable West Village of Singing Hills gated community, offering enhanced security and access to various community amenities.
Recent Major System Upgrades: A brand new roof has been installed, and the HVAC system is certified, providing peace of mind and eliminating immediate major expenses for the buyer.
Functional Layout & Features: The home offers a practical layout with large bedrooms, two distinct gathering spaces, a brick fireplace, an open floor plan, a fully fenced yard, in-home laundry, and a large 2-car garage.
Seller Incentive & Price Adjustment: The seller is offering a 1-year home warranty, and the property has seen a recent price reduction from $720,000 to $689,000, presenting a more attractive value proposition.
Cons
Age of Property: Built in 1988, the home is over 35 years old, which may imply dated interior finishes or systems in areas not explicitly mentioned as updated, despite the new roof and HVAC.
Moderate Size for Single Family: With 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms across 1351 sqft, the property might be considered smaller for a single-family residence, potentially limiting its appeal to larger families or those seeking more expansive living areas.
Ongoing Association Fees: The property is subject to a monthly association fee of $265, which adds to the recurring cost of homeownership and should be factored into a buyer's budget.
