Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Golf Course Location & Views: Situated directly on the 4th hole of The Links at Lakehouse Golf Course, offering desirable golf course views and a tranquil setting in Lake San Marcos.
Extensive High-Quality Renovations: Over $370,000 has been invested in comprehensive renovations across the exterior, interior, kitchen, and bathrooms, utilizing quality products designed to last.
Luxurious Outdoor Living Space: The redesigned backyard features a custom-built waterfall, putting green, turf, retaining block planters, and a solid wood high-beam covered patio, creating an ideal space for relaxation and entertainment.
Gourmet Kitchen & Modern Interior: Boasts a completely redesigned gourmet kitchen with premium Quartzite countertops, a large island, high-end appliances (5-burner stove, double oven), a prep sink with instant hot water, and a butler’s pantry. The interior features an open floorplan, raised ceilings, hardwood floors, skylights, and Solatubes for abundant natural light.
Updated Infrastructure & Energy Efficiency: Significant infrastructure upgrades include a new 50-year roof (2021), 200 AMP electrical panel, newer HVAC system, tankless hot water heater, updated ABS water lines and copper sewer plumbing, and insulation in walls and attic, enhancing comfort and reducing maintenance concerns.

Cons

Age of Original Construction: Despite extensive modern renovations, the property's original build year of 1966 might be a consideration for buyers preferring newer construction, potentially raising questions about underlying structural elements or older architectural styles not fully updated.
Modest Lot Size for Location: The 8100 sqft lot, while well-utilized with outdoor features, may be considered modest for a luxury home on a golf course, potentially limiting further expansion or offering less expansive private yard space than some buyers might desire.
Recent Price Adjustment: The property has seen a price reduction from its original list price of $1,649,900 to $1,598,900, which could indicate a longer time on market or an initial overestimation of value, potentially leading to buyer perception of negotiation room.
