Condition Rating
Good
Built in 1935, this property has undergone significant recent updates including new flooring, paint, dual-pane windows, a newer roof, septic system, and an upgraded 200 amp electrical panel, making it move-in ready. While the kitchen features a newer stainless steel refrigerator, its cabinets, laminate countertops, and vinyl flooring appear dated. The living areas have updated laminate flooring and paint, but some light fixtures and the stone fireplace also show an older style. Despite these dated elements, the substantial recent investments in major systems and overall cosmetic refresh elevate the property's condition to 'Good', as it requires no immediate major renovations and is well-maintained.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Recent Major Upgrades: The home boasts significant recent updates including new flooring, paint, dual-pane windows, a newer roof, septic system, and an upgraded 200 amp electrical panel, reducing immediate maintenance concerns for a buyer.
Spacious Lot & Outdoor Amenities: Situated on just under an acre of land with mature shade trees, low-maintenance landscaping, a recently paved driveway, and a private above-ground pool, offering ample outdoor space for recreation and privacy.
Desirable Location & Accessibility: Located in Alpine, providing the serenity of a country setting while maintaining convenient access to the I-8 interstate, shopping centers, and dining options.
Owned Propane Tanks: The propane tanks for the home are owned, eliminating ongoing lease costs and providing a long-term financial benefit to the homeowner.
Generous Interior Space: A spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom layout spanning 1846 sqft offers comfortable living arrangements suitable for families.
Cons
Age of Property: Built in 1935, despite recent renovations, the underlying structure is quite old, which may lead to unforeseen maintenance issues or concerns about older infrastructure not covered by current updates.
Price Reduction History: The property has undergone a significant price reduction from $850,000 to $799,000, which could indicate initial overpricing or challenges in attracting buyers, potentially raising questions about its market value.
Lack of Scenic Views: The property explicitly states 'view: None,' which is a notable drawback in a desirable country setting like Alpine where scenic views are often a premium feature and highly sought after.
