Condition Rating
Good

Despite being built in 1978, the property has undergone significant and recent updates, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms, making it move-in ready. The kitchen features updated black cabinets, modern white subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a butcher block island, aligning with current trends. The description notes an 'updated secondary bathroom with a quartz countertop.' While some light fixtures and a shower enclosure show minor signs of age, the overall condition is well-maintained with new-looking wood-look flooring throughout. The tongue and groove pine open beam ceilings are a desirable architectural feature. The renovations appear to be within the 5-15 year timeframe, elevating the property's condition to 'Good' as it requires no immediate major renovations.

Cons

Age of Property & Potential for System Updates: Built in 1978, while some areas are updated, other core systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) may be original or nearing end-of-life, potentially requiring future investment. The description does not mention a cooling system.
Modest Interior Square Footage: At 1331 sqft, the interior living space might be considered compact for some buyers, especially given the generous lot size, which could limit appeal for those seeking larger homes.
Niche Market Location: Located in Idyllwild, a mountain community, the property's appeal may be limited to a specific buyer demographic seeking a serene, nature-oriented lifestyle, potentially impacting resale velocity compared to more urbanized areas.
