Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1975, this property is nearly 50 years old. While the home appears to be maintained, the kitchen and bathrooms are significantly outdated. The kitchen features original-style tile countertops, older white cabinets, and a mix of appliances (a newer stainless steel refrigerator alongside older white stove and microwave). The bathrooms are particularly dated, with one featuring carpeted flooring (a significant drawback), older vanities, and light fixtures. The general flooring throughout the home is carpet, which appears worn in some areas. The overall aesthetic and components suggest that no major renovations have occurred in the last 30+ years, aligning with a 'fair' condition where major components are functional but show signs of being outdated and require minor updates or repairs to meet current standards.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Panoramic Views: The property boasts amazing views of the St. Mark Championship Golf Course and beautiful sunsets from multiple rooms and balconies, enhancing its appeal and value.
Comprehensive HOA Benefits: The outstanding HOA covers premium amenities including 2,400 cable channels, high-speed Wi-Fi, water, trash service, access to the pool and tennis courts, and termite treatments, offering significant value and convenience.
Prime Location: Conveniently located close to restaurants, shopping, major highways, and just a short drive to the beach, providing easy access to local amenities and attractions.
Thoughtful Layout & Features: A smart one-story floor plan ensures privacy with separated bedrooms, while high ceilings in the living room, a fireplace, and two balconies offer comfortable living and outdoor enjoyment.
Recent Price Reduction: A recent price drop from $719,000 to $688,000 makes the property more attractive and potentially indicates a motivated seller, offering a better value proposition.

Cons

Age of Property: Built in 1975, the home is nearly 50 years old, which may imply original systems (e.g., HVAC, plumbing, electrical) and finishes that could require updating or maintenance in the near future.
Monthly HOA Fees: The $525.0 monthly association fee, while covering many amenities, is a significant recurring cost that adds to the overall housing expense and should be factored into a buyer's budget.
Potential for Dated Interiors/Systems: The description does not specify recent major renovations, suggesting that some interior elements or core systems might be original to the 1975 build and could require modernization to meet current buyer expectations.
