Resort-Style Outdoor Oasis: Features a custom 20x40 saltwater pool and spa, large fire pit, new hardscape, artificial grass, and privacy landscaping, ideal for luxurious entertaining and relaxation.

Modernized Interior & Infrastructure: Boasts wood flooring, recessed lighting, updated primary suite, new windows, remodeled garage, and significant system upgrades for enhanced reliability and contemporary living.

Cons

Original Construction Age: Built in 1981, the property's core structure is over four decades old, which may raise concerns about long-term maintenance or require further inspections despite recent upgrades.
Discrepancy with Property Estimation: The current list price of nearly $3 million is considerably higher than the estimated property value of approximately $2.65 million, potentially indicating an aggressive pricing strategy.
Unspecified Kitchen Renovation: While other areas are detailed, the description lacks specific information about a comprehensive kitchen remodel, which is often a critical feature for luxury buyers and could be an area requiring future investment.
