Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1980, this property has received recent cosmetic updates including new light-colored flooring and fresh paint throughout the main living areas and bedrooms, which are positive. However, the kitchen features older style dark wood cabinets and countertops, and at least one bathroom (Image 6) is significantly outdated with an almond-colored tub and older fixtures, requiring a full renovation for modern appeal. While move-in ready, the dated kitchen and particularly the bathroom prevent it from being classified as 'Good' as they would likely require immediate attention and substantial updates from a new owner.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Expansive & Private Lot: The property sits privately on over a half-acre (23,958 sqft) on the N. slope of Mt Helix, offering significant space and privacy for maximum enjoyment.
Recent Interior Remodel: Recently remodeled with gorgeous floors and paint, the home features high vaulted ceilings and multiple living areas, enhancing its modern appeal and spacious feel.
Gourmet Kitchen: The kitchen is designed for 'true cooks' with abundant convenient storage cabinets, suggesting a highly functional and well-equipped culinary space.
Ample Storage & Vehicle Accommodation: Offers plenty of room for RVs, boats, trailers, and extensive garage space, catering to buyers with recreational vehicles or significant storage needs.
Outdoor Entertainment & Serene Views: Features loads of entertaining areas on multiple patios and decks, complemented by serene views from the primary suite and its advantageous position on Mt. Helix.
Cons
Property Age: Built in 1980, the core structure is over 40 years old. While remodeled, potential buyers may inquire about the condition and updates of original systems like plumbing, electrical, or roofing not explicitly mentioned.
Manual Security Gate: The property is secured by a manual security gate, which, while providing safety, may be less convenient for daily access compared to an automated system.
Unspecified Cooling System: The description does not mention a specific cooling system (e.g., central air conditioning), which could be a significant consideration for comfort during warmer months in El Cajon.
