Condition Rating
Good

Built in 1995, this home is 29 years old. However, the images clearly show significant and tasteful updates, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen features modern white shaker cabinets, white quartz countertops, a subway tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances (double oven, built-in microwave, large fridge), suggesting a renovation within the last 5-10 years. Bathrooms also appear updated with contemporary vanities, fixtures, and tiling. Flooring includes newer-looking hardwood and clean carpets. The overall aesthetic is clean, well-maintained, and move-in ready, aligning with the 'Good' condition criteria for a property built over 20 years ago but extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Location & Community: Located in a 24-hour guard-gated community (Trailwood) within Northwood Pointe, at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, offering enhanced security and tranquility. The community boasts mature landscaping and a friendly HOA with multiple events.
Exceptional School Access: Less than 300 yards from National Blue Ribbon Award-winning Canyon View Elementary and Northwood High Schools, making it highly desirable for families.
Financial Advantages: Benefits from NO Mello Roos tax and significantly lower HOA dues ($265/month) compared to new construction, which includes access to extensive amenities.
Spacious & Functional Layout: Nearly 3,000 sqft with 5 bedrooms and 4 full baths, including a highly desirable main-level guest room, and a unique 3-car side-by-side garage with an extra-long driveway.
Abundant Community Amenities & Lifestyle: HOA includes two swimming facilities, multiple parks, four tennis courts, and direct trail access (Hicks Canyon Trail) to shops and restaurants without crossing major roads, fostering an active and connected lifestyle.

Cons

Age of Property: Built in 1995, the property is nearly 30 years old, which may imply that some interior finishes, systems, or appliances could be dated compared to modern new construction homes.
Recent Price Reductions: The listing has seen multiple price reductions (from $2.688M to $2.498M), which could suggest the initial pricing was ambitious or that the property has faced challenges attracting buyers at its previous price points.
Potential for Deferred Maintenance/Updates: While described as 'beautifully maintained,' the age of the property (1995) means potential buyers might anticipate the need for future updates or renovations to align with current design trends or energy efficiency standards.
