Despite being built in 1982, this property has clearly undergone extensive and recent renovations, bringing it to an excellent, turnkey condition. The kitchens and bathrooms, as seen in the images, feature modern shaker-style cabinetry, new countertops (likely quartz), contemporary fixtures (e.g., black faucets, modern lighting), and stainless steel appliances. The flooring throughout appears to be new luxury vinyl plank (LVP) or engineered wood, and light fixtures are stylish and current. The description highlights 'all-electric appliances,' 'new Pool Area,' and 'fully solar-powered with individual systems,' including central air and mini-splits, indicating updated and efficient systems. The overall aesthetic is fresh, modern, and well-maintained, meeting current quality standards with virtually new components.
Pros & Cons

Pros

High Available Lot Utilization: The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 1916640, living area = 7265.
Exceptional Income & Usage Versatility: This turnkey retreat offers proven rental history and is ideally suited for diverse income streams, including weddings, corporate events, short-term rentals, or as a private multi-generational compound.
Expansive Acreage & Panoramic Views: A sprawling 40-acre estate provides breathtaking panoramic mountain and lake views, complemented by scenic hiking trails and significant potential for future glamping expansion.
Multiple Residential Units: The property features four distinct, fully furnished homes and three stylish Tiny Homes (ADUs), offering extensive accommodation capacity and flexible living arrangements for various needs.

Sustainable & Energy-Efficient Operations: Fully solar-powered with individual systems for each dwelling and all-electric appliances, significantly reducing utility costs and promoting environmental sustainability.

Cons

Solar Lease Obligation: The presence of a solar lease implies ongoing financial commitments and contractual responsibilities that a buyer must assume and thoroughly verify.
Intensive Management & Maintenance: Operating and maintaining seven residential units, extensive resort amenities, and 40 acres will demand substantial time, resources, and potentially dedicated staff, especially if run as a commercial venture.
Potential for Remote Location Challenges: While offering privacy, the expansive and somewhat remote location may present logistical challenges for guests, staff, and access to immediate services, despite proximity to some regional attractions.
