Condition Rating
Fair

The property, built in 1972, is well-maintained with recent updates to major systems (water heater, septic) and exterior (Hardy Board). The travertine flooring is a positive, durable feature. However, the kitchen features significantly dated light wood cabinets and white tile countertops, and the main bathroom's ornate vanity, while functional, is not contemporary. These key areas show signs of being outdated and would require cosmetic updates to meet modern standards, aligning with a 'Fair' condition.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Expansive & Private Acreage: The property boasts a wonderful, hidden acre featuring shaded walking paths, mature gardens, fruit trees, and animal enclosures, offering a unique rural lifestyle close to city amenities.
Versatile Living Space: A flexible floor plan includes a semi-private 'west wing' with two bedrooms and a full bath, ideal for guests, roommates, or multi-generational living arrangements.
Ample & RV-Friendly Parking: Exceptional parking capacity with a 2-car garage, 2-carport, and four additional gated off-street spaces, including dedicated RV parking.
Enhanced Exterior Durability & Fire Safety: The home's exterior is completely encased in fire-retardant Hardy Board, including the eaves, providing superior protection and longevity.
Recent System Updates & Interior Finishes: Key updates include a one-year-new water heater, recent septic pump/inspection & certification, new kitchen dishwasher and chrome appliances, complemented by vaulted ceilings and travertine flooring throughout.

Cons

Lack of Central Air Conditioning: The property description mentions a propane furnace but no central air conditioning, which could be a significant comfort drawback during warmer months in Fallbrook.
Older Core Structure: Built in 1972, while some updates are noted, the underlying age of the property may imply older systems or components not explicitly mentioned as updated, potentially requiring future maintenance or upgrades.
Galley Style Kitchen: Despite new appliances, the 'galley style' kitchen layout might not appeal to all buyers who prefer more open-concept or larger, more expansive kitchen designs.
