Built in 1978, this property is over 40 years old. While some areas like the primary bathroom show signs of recent, modern renovation (tiled shower, wood-look flooring), and significant upgrades like solar power and A/C are present, the kitchen is notably outdated. It features dated tile countertops, a matching tile backsplash, and an old electric coil cooktop, which would require a full renovation to meet current aesthetic and functional standards. Other areas are well-maintained but reflect the home's age, such as the carpeted living room and the drop ceiling in the bonus room. The property is functional and has received some updates, but the kitchen's condition prevents it from being classified as 'Good' and indicates a need for minor to moderate updates.

Cons

Property Age: Built in 1978, the home is over four decades old, which may imply a need for updates to certain systems or finishes to meet modern aesthetic or efficiency standards for some buyers.
Reverse Floor Plan: While offering views, the reverse floor plan (main living upstairs) might not appeal to all buyers, particularly those with mobility concerns or who prefer direct ground-level access from primary living spaces.
Association Fee: The presence of a $500.0 association fee adds a recurring cost to homeownership, which could be a consideration for budget-conscious buyers, especially for a single-family residence on a large lot.
