The property, built in 1981, is well-maintained with good hardwood floors and overall upkeep. However, the kitchen features granite countertops and a style that appears to be from a renovation 15-20 years ago, and the primary bathroom's marble-look tiles, vanity design, and ceiling light panel suggest a renovation in the 15-25 year range. While functional and clean, these key areas show signs of being outdated and would require updates to meet current aesthetic standards.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Premium Location & Security: A+ Westside location within the 24-hour guard-gated Mountaingate community in Brentwood, offering unparalleled security and prestige.
Comprehensive HOA Benefits: Extensive HOA package covers fire/earthquake insurance, exterior maintenance, roof, trash, 24HR security, and community pool/spa, significantly reducing homeowner responsibilities.
Exceptional Outdoor Living Space: Features one of Brentwood's best wrap-around backyards, designed like a private park with specimen trees, gardens, and a grassy lawn, ideal for recreation and pets.
Direct Community Pool Access: Strategically located adjacent to the community pool, providing the convenience of a private pool experience without the maintenance burden.
Flexible & Bright Interior Layout: Boasts an open 2-bedroom plus den floorplan with dramatic high ceilings, abundant natural light, and a versatile den easily convertible to a third bedroom or office.

Cons

Substantial Monthly HOA Dues: The high monthly association fee of $1,451.50, while inclusive of many services, represents a significant ongoing cost that could impact buyer affordability.
Limited Dedicated Bedrooms: With only two dedicated bedrooms (plus a convertible den), the property may not cater to larger families or buyers requiring three or more private sleeping quarters for a home of nearly 2600 sqft.
Potential for Dated Finishes: Built in 1981, and with the description of a 'charming corner kitchen,' some interior elements may not reflect contemporary design trends, potentially necessitating updates for modern luxury appeal.
