Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Location & Exclusive Community: Located in the prestigious, guard-gated Groves of Orchard Hills, offering enhanced security, exclusivity, and walking distance to Orchard Hills Shopping Center and award-winning K-8 Orchard Hills School.
Exceptional Layout & Spaciousness: A highly sought-after floor plan with 6 bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms spanning over 4,200 sq. ft., including a spacious bonus room and all bedrooms featuring en-suite bathrooms for ultimate comfort and privacy.
Multigenerational Living & Guest Accommodation: Features a dedicated casita on the main level with a private entrance and kitchenette, providing an ideal setup for multigenerational living or accommodating guests.
Luxurious Upgrades & Modern Amenities: Boasts richly appointed interiors, a chef's kitchen with professional-grade appliances, whole-house soft water system with reverse osmosis, new tankless water heater, solar power, and designer finishes throughout.
Resort-Style Indoor/Outdoor Entertaining: Seamless indoor-outdoor living is facilitated by a covered California room flowing from the great room, complemented by a private backyard oasis featuring a tranquil water wall, outdoor fireplace, and built-in BBQ.

Cons

High Monthly Association Fees: The $385 monthly association fee, while contributing to extensive community amenities, represents a significant recurring cost that could be a consideration for some buyers.
Limited Backyard Footprint: Despite being a unique corner lot offering privacy, the 6,479 sq. ft. lot size relative to the large 4,284 sq. ft. home means the usable backyard space is not expansive, potentially limiting appeal for buyers desiring large outdoor areas.
Niche Market Appeal: The property's ultra-luxury features and specific setting within a guard-gated community cater to a very particular high-end buyer demographic, which could potentially narrow the buyer pool and extend market time.
