Built in 1978, this property has benefited from significant recent updates including a new roof (2021), HVAC (2022), new skylights, and upgraded sliders, ensuring major systems are well within their expected lifespan. The primary bedroom features new carpet and paint, and bathrooms have refreshed counters and flooring, with one shower appearing recently updated. While the kitchen is spacious and functional with a mix of newer stainless steel appliances (dishwasher, refrigerator) and older white appliances (oven, microwave), and features granite countertops and a butcher block island, its tile flooring and some fixtures appear dated. The main living area also features dated tile flooring. Overall, the home is move-in ready with excellent maintenance on critical components, but some cosmetic elements, particularly in the kitchen and main living area, prevent it from being classified as 'excellent' due to not having undergone a full, modern renovation throughout.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Community Amenities & Gated Entry: The property is located in the desirable Casitas Van Ness community, offering residents access to multiple pools, tennis courts, and a clubhouse within a private, gated, park-like neighborhood.
Extensive Recent Updates: Significant capital improvements have been completed, including a new roof (2021), HVAC (2022), new skylights, upgraded sliders, and refreshed primary suite finishes, reducing immediate buyer expenses.
Versatile Floor Plan: The thoughtful layout includes a main-level primary suite, an additional main-level bedroom (ideal for a home office), and two upstairs bedrooms, providing flexibility for various living needs.
Architectural Charm & Natural Light: The main living area features vaulted ceilings, custom built-ins, a white brick fireplace, and floor-to-ceiling windows with upgraded sliders, ensuring abundant natural light and an inviting atmosphere.
Convenient Location: Tucked within a secluded neighborhood, the home remains conveniently close to shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences.

Cons

Small Lot Size: The 4,080 sqft lot is relatively compact for a 2,231 sqft home, which may limit private outdoor living space.
High Association Fees: A significant association fee of $590.0 (likely monthly) adds a substantial recurring cost to homeownership, which could impact affordability.
Age of Property (Potential for further cosmetic updates): While major systems are updated, the 1978 build year suggests some original design elements or aesthetics may still be present, potentially requiring further cosmetic updates to fully modernize certain areas.
