Condition Rating
Good

This property, built in 1985, presents as move-in ready with significant cosmetic updates that align with a recent renovation (likely within the last 5-15 years). The kitchen features modern white shaker cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and clean butcher block countertops. Bathrooms have updated vanities and appear well-maintained. Consistent LVP flooring throughout, neutral paint, and recessed lighting contribute to a fresh, contemporary feel. While the original build year is older, the extensive updates and overall well-maintained condition place it firmly in the 'Good' category, requiring no immediate renovations.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Location: Situated in highly desirable Olde Carlsbad, offering walkability to schools, parks, and trails, and just minutes from Carlsbad Village, shopping, and beaches.
Versatile Floorplan: The current configuration allows for multi-generational living or potential income generation with a separate entry for the lower level, offering significant flexibility.
Community Amenities: Residents benefit from access to community amenities including a pool, spa, and tennis courts, enhancing lifestyle and property appeal.
Move-in Ready Condition: Described as a 'charming move-in ready home,' suggesting minimal immediate investment for new owners.
Appealing Interior Features: Features an open floor plan with vaulted ceilings, a cozy fireplace, a primary suite on the entry level, and a kitchen with butcher block counters and a private balcony with views.

Cons

Non-Traditional Layout: The enclosed original interior stairway creates a non-traditional layout that may require renovation for buyers preferring a standard single-family configuration.
Price Point vs. Market Estimate: The current listing price of $1.298M is above the estimated property value of $1.239M, potentially limiting buyer interest or negotiation leverage.
Ongoing Association Fees: A monthly association fee of $180 adds to the recurring cost of homeownership, which some buyers may prefer to avoid.
