Condition Rating
Good
Built in 1997, this home has seen significant recent upgrades including 26 owned solar panels and a recently installed HVAC system, which are major system improvements. The description states it was 'remodeled inside and out,' and the images show a clean, well-maintained interior with features like plantation shutters, recessed lighting, and a mix of hardwood and carpet flooring. While the kitchen is functional and clean, its white tile countertops and white appliances appear somewhat dated, preventing an 'excellent' rating. However, the property is clearly move-in ready with no immediate renovations required, aligning well with a 'good' condition score.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Energy Efficiency & Modern Systems: Equipped with 26 owned solar panels and a recently installed HVAC system, significantly reducing utility costs and enhancing home comfort and efficiency.
Extensive Renovations & Designer Touches: Remodeled inside and out, featuring cathedral ceilings, plantation shutters, recessed lighting, and a dual fireplace, offering a move-in ready and aesthetically pleasing living environment.
Desirable Model & Rarity: Identified as the largest and rarely available 'Plan 5' model in Crown Hills, indicating high demand and potential for exclusivity within the community.
Comprehensive Community Amenities: Residents benefit from a large, well-maintained pool, spa, well-outfitted gym, community center, tennis courts, and extensive green spaces with walking paths, providing a resort-like lifestyle.
Scenic Panoramic Views: The property boasts panoramic, canyon, and mountain views, adding significant aesthetic appeal and a desirable backdrop to the home.
Cons
Ongoing HOA Fees: Despite being described as 'low,' the $240 monthly HOA fee represents an additional recurring cost that potential buyers must factor into their budget.
Commute to Top-Rated Schools: The closest highly-rated public high school is over 8.5 miles away, which could be a considerable commute for families prioritizing proximity to schools.
Limited Private Outdoor Space: The 5,081 sqft lot size, while adequate, may not appeal to buyers seeking a larger private yard or extensive personal outdoor living areas, despite the community amenities.
