Condition Rating
Good

Built in 1985, this property has undergone extensive and recent updates that elevate its condition significantly. The kitchen features newer cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, presenting a modern and well-maintained appearance. The hall bathroom is explicitly described as 'beautifully remodeled' and visually confirms contemporary finishes and fixtures. Crucially, major systems such as the roof, HVAC, tankless water heater, electrical system, and windows are all noted as 'newer' or 'upgraded', indicating substantial investment in the property's infrastructure. Hardwood floors in the main living areas and clean carpets in the bedroom contribute to a move-in ready state. While not a brand-new build or a full renovation within the last 5 years, the comprehensive updates place it firmly in the 'Good' category, requiring no immediate renovations and boasting well-maintained systems within their expected lifespan.
Pros & Cons

Comprehensive Community Amenities: Residents have access to the fabulous Oaks North Community Center, featuring swimming, pickleball, tennis, lawn bowling, a workout gym, wood shop, and multiple nearby golf courses.

Cons

Age of Original Construction: Built in 1985, the property's core structure is older, which may lead to potential long-term maintenance considerations despite numerous recent upgrades.
Limited Buyer Pool (55+ Restriction): Being part of a 55+ community significantly narrows the potential buyer demographic, which could impact marketability and resale velocity.
Substantial Price Reduction: A notable price drop from the original list price ($1,199,000 to $999,999) suggests potential initial overpricing or challenges in attracting buyers at the higher valuation.
