Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 2005, this property is 19 years old and appears well-maintained. However, the visible bathroom features (vanity, light fixtures, tile) are dated in style, consistent with the original construction and showing no signs of recent renovation. The absence of kitchen photos suggests it likely shares a similar functional but outdated aesthetic. While the property is clean and systems appear functional, the key areas of kitchen and bathrooms require minor updates to meet current aesthetic standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria for properties with outdated components and no major renovations since construction.
Pros & Cons

Great Schools: Elementary School: Alamos Elementary School (9/10). High School: Chaparral High School (9/10).
Prime Location & Convenience: The property is perfectly located in the heart of Murrieta, offering unbeatable convenience with minutes-away access to major shopping plazas, popular restaurants, and quick freeway access.
Community Amenities: Residents benefit from access to a community pool and spa, providing excellent recreational options and a resort-like lifestyle.
Solar Energy System: The home includes a solar energy system, which helps reduce energy costs year-round and contributes to environmental sustainability.
Low-Maintenance Backyard: The property features a low-maintenance backyard, ideal for effortless outdoor living and appealing to those who prefer minimal yard work.
Access to Highly-Rated Schools: The home is situated within proximity to several highly-rated schools, including Alta Murrieta Elementary (9) and Chaparral High School (9), making it attractive for families.
Cons
Ongoing HOA Fees: The property is subject to an association fee of $140.0 per month, which adds to the overall monthly housing expenses.
Undisclosed Interior Condition: The description mentions 'comfortable living spaces' but lacks specific details on interior upgrades, finishes, or unique features, potentially implying a standard or dated interior that may require personalization.
Potentially Limited Private Outdoor Space: While 'low-maintenance' is a strength, it often suggests a smaller or less private backyard, which might not appeal to buyers seeking extensive outdoor living areas or gardening opportunities.
