Condition Rating
Good

Built in 1988, this property has undergone significant recent renovations, including a brand-new gourmet kitchen with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and modern finishes. New luxury vinyl plank flooring downstairs and brand-new dual-pane windows, along with solar and an EV charger, contribute to a highly updated and move-in ready condition. While some elements like the upstairs carpet and at least one bathroom vanity appear to be older, they are well-maintained and functional, aligning with a 'Good' rating where major systems are functional and within expected lifespan, and some components are updated, but not every single element is brand new.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Extensive Modern Upgrades: The home features a brand-new gourmet kitchen with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, new luxury vinyl plank flooring downstairs, and brand-new dual pane windows, offering a move-in ready modern aesthetic.
Energy Efficiency & Modern Amenities: Equipped with solar panels and an EV charger, the property provides significant long-term energy savings and caters to contemporary lifestyle needs.
Desirable Community & Location: Located in 'The Cove,' a sought-after gated community in Shadowridge, it offers proximity to the beach (10 minutes), a community pool, and access to local parks, trails, shopping, and golf.
Architectural Appeal & Natural Light: Soaring vaulted ceilings and skylights throughout the living and dining areas create an open, airy atmosphere filled with warm natural light.
Private Outdoor Space: A peaceful wooded backyard with mature trees offers a serene and private setting for relaxation and entertaining.

Cons

No Central Air Conditioning: While dual-pane windows are mentioned for efficiency, the property description does not indicate the presence of a central cooling system, which could be a comfort concern during warmer months.
Monthly Association Fees: The property is subject to a monthly association fee of $147, which adds a recurring cost to homeownership.
Limited Lot Size: With a lot size of 3,945 sqft, the outdoor space may be considered modest for buyers seeking a larger yard or more expansive private outdoor living areas.
