Prime Golf Course Location: Nestled along the scenic golf course, the oversized back patio provides direct views of the 7th green and 8th hole, ideal for golf enthusiasts and outdoor entertaining.
Resort-Style Community Amenities: Membership in the Country Greens Association provides access to a community pool, tennis, paddle tennis, pickleball, and sport courts, enhancing lifestyle and recreational options.

Excellent School Proximity & Accessibility: Conveniently located within 2 miles of top-rated schools and offering easy access to Lake San Marcos community centers, shopping, hiking, and major commuter routes.

Cons

Ongoing HOA Dues: The monthly association fee of $252, while covering amenities, represents a recurring cost that must be factored into the overall housing budget.
Modest Lot Size: The 5,900 sq ft lot (0.14 acres) may be considered small for some buyers seeking a larger private yard or more expansive outdoor space.
Age of Original Construction: Despite extensive remodels, the home was built in 1979, which could imply older underlying infrastructure or systems not explicitly updated, potentially requiring future attention.
