Condition Rating
Fair

Built in 1979, this 45-year-old property shows its age despite some updates. The kitchen features Corian counters and some newer appliances, but the cabinet style appears dated, suggesting a renovation 15-30 years ago. Bathrooms are significantly outdated with old vanities and linoleum flooring, clearly requiring renovation. The presence of a window AC unit indicates a lack of central cooling. While functional and maintained, the home requires minor to moderate updates and repairs to modernize its systems and aesthetics, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Mountain Resort Location: Situated in the resort community of Wrightwood at 6,200 ft elevation, offering year-round outdoor activities like skiing, hiking, and snowplay, with convenient access to local amenities and major freeways.
Spacious & Functional Interior Layout: Features an open and airy floor plan with 4 beds, 3 baths, and 2034 sqft, including distinct living areas (living room with wood stove, family room with fireplace/balcony) and an indoor laundry room.
Upgraded Kitchen & Modern Touches: The kitchen has been upgraded with Corian counters and newer appliances, complemented by cathedral ceilings and recessed lighting, enhancing the home's modern appeal.
Strong Curb Appeal & Outdoor Living: Boasts great curb appeal, mature trees, and a private, low-maintenance backyard with two covered patios, providing excellent spaces for outdoor enjoyment.
Excellent Value Proposition: Positioned as an 'excellent value' with the potential to 'save a bundle,' appealing to buyers looking for a property with immediate equity potential through minor improvements.

Cons

Requires Cosmetic Updates/TLC: The description explicitly states the home 'needs just a bit of TLC' and encourages buyers to 'Grab a brush,' indicating immediate cosmetic or minor repair investments are needed.
Age of Property (1979): Built in 1979, the property's age suggests that some systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, roof) may be original or nearing the end of their lifespan, potentially requiring future maintenance or replacement.
Lack of Central Cooling System Mention: While heating is well-addressed with fireplaces and a wood stove, there is no mention of a central cooling system, which could be a comfort concern during warmer periods, especially for buyers accustomed to AC.
