Condition Rating
Excellent

Despite being built in 1981, this property has undergone extensive, high-quality, and recent renovations, bringing it to an excellent, move-in ready condition. The visible interiors feature modern hardwood flooring, recessed lighting, and contemporary fixtures throughout. The primary bathroom is a prime example of this, showcasing a complete overhaul with stylish subway tiles, a freestanding tub, a large glass-enclosed shower, and a modern vanity with brass accents, all indicative of a very recent update. The description also highlights a 'newly built luxury infinity edge pool,' further supporting significant recent investment. While kitchen images are not provided, the overall modern aesthetic and 'open concept' description suggest it has been updated to a similar high standard. The property meets current quality standards with virtually new components and no visible deferred maintenance.

Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 5, other record bedroom count = 4.
Property Age & Potential Updates: Built in 1981, while described as having a 'modern home design,' the underlying infrastructure or certain components may require updates to meet current luxury standards, which is not explicitly detailed.
High Investment Threshold: The list price of nearly $4.8 million places it in a very exclusive market segment, potentially limiting the pool of prospective buyers.
Limited Panoramic Views: While offering pleasant 'Trees/Woods' views and lush greenery, the property does not boast the panoramic city or ocean views that some buyers in this luxury price range might expect or prioritize.
