The property was built in 1977, making it 47 years old. While the listing mentions recent updates like a brand-new AC system, fresh interior paint, and leased solar, the kitchen and main bathroom (as seen in images) show significant signs of being outdated. The kitchen features 'warm maple cabinetry' and stainless steel appliances, which are functional but the cabinet style and light fixtures appear older. The main bathroom has tiled countertops and small square tiles in the shower/tub combo, consistent with a renovation 20-30+ years ago or original features. The primary bathroom is described as 'spa-inspired' with granite/travertine, suggesting a more recent update there, but the overall impression from the visible key areas is that they are aged but maintained, requiring minor aesthetic updates to meet current standards.

Prime Location & Privacy: Nestled at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac within the prestigious, gated Coto de Caza community, offering exceptional privacy and natural beauty with protected greenbelt views.
Significant Recent Upgrades: Key updates include a brand-new AC system, fresh interior paint, fire prevention roof sprinkler system, custom turf, and a whole-house attic fan, enhancing comfort and safety.
Desirable Community Amenities & Low Costs: Access to award-winning schools, optional golf/racquet club, equestrian facilities, and trails, coupled with the financial benefit of low HOA fees and no Mello-Roos.
Excellent Indoor-Outdoor Living: Features a serene backyard with a hot tub and multiple patios, perfect for entertaining or unwinding, complemented by picturesque views of rolling hills and mature oaks.
Charming Interior Features: Boasts soaring cathedral ceilings, expansive windows, a statement brick-and-wood fireplace, a chef's kitchen with a center island, and a convenient main-level primary suite.

Cons

Property Age: Built in 1977, the property, despite recent updates, retains a 'classic charm' which may suggest some original elements or systems that could require future maintenance or modernization.
Estimated Overpricing: The current list price of $1,399,000 is approximately 9% higher than the estimated property value of $1,269,642, potentially indicating it is overvalued according to automated estimations.
Leased Solar System: While beneficial for energy efficiency, the solar system is leased, which may be less appealing to some buyers due to ongoing contractual obligations compared to an owned system.
