Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1968, this property features an updated kitchen and luxury vinyl flooring, providing a modern aesthetic in key areas. However, the listing does not specify updates to major systems such as plumbing, electrical, HVAC, or the roof. Given the home's age, these underlying systems are likely original or significantly older, indicating they are functional but show signs of being outdated and will require future attention or replacement. The exterior image shows a well-maintained but clearly older home, consistent with a property that has received some updates but not a full, extensive renovation of all major 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 = 7920, living area = 1360.
Great Schools: Elementary School: De Portola Elementary School (9/10).
Updated Interior Finishes: The property features an updated kitchen and luxury vinyl flooring, providing a modern aesthetic and reducing immediate renovation needs for new owners.
Desirable Architectural Elements: A formal entry, vaulted ceilings, and a fireplace enhance the home's character and create a more spacious and inviting atmosphere.
Excellent School Proximity: Located within the Capistrano Unified district, with multiple highly-rated elementary, middle, and high schools within a mile, making it attractive to families.
Generous Lot Size: The 7,920 sqft lot offers ample outdoor space for landscaping, recreation, or potential future expansion possibilities.
Prime Mission Viejo Location: Situated in Mission Viejo, a highly desirable city known for its community amenities, quality of life, and convenient access to local attractions.
Cons
High Price Point for Size: The list price of $1,199,000 for 1,360 sqft represents a significant investment for the square footage offered, potentially limiting the buyer pool.
Older Construction: Built in 1968, while some updates are noted, potential buyers may be concerned about the age of underlying systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC, roof) that are not explicitly stated as updated.
Absence of Views: The property explicitly states 'view: None,' which can be a drawback in a market where scenic outlooks often add significant value and appeal.
