Condition Rating
Good

Built in 2000, this property is exceptionally well-maintained and presents a 'timeless design' with high-quality finishes throughout. The gourmet kitchen features modern stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and traditional dark wood cabinetry, all in excellent condition and fully functional. Bathrooms maintain a consistent, clean aesthetic with dark wood vanities, stone countertops, and tiled showers/tubs, showing no signs of wear or immediate need for renovation. While the style leans classic rather than ultra-modern, the property is move-in ready with no deferred maintenance, and major systems, including owned solar, are functional and within expected lifespans. The overall condition and quality of components place it firmly in the 'Good' category, despite its age being slightly outside the typical 'built within 10-20 years' range for this score.

Cons

Age of Property / Potential for Updates: Built in 2000, the property is 24 years old. While described as having 'timeless design,' some systems or finishes may not be to the latest modern standards or could require updates in the near future, which might not align with buyers seeking brand-new construction or fully renovated homes.
Ongoing Maintenance Costs: The expansive 2-acre lot, 5,500+ sq ft home, pool, and detached studios imply significant ongoing costs for landscaping, pool maintenance, and general upkeep, which could be a consideration for potential buyers.
Homeowners Association (HOA) Fees & Restrictions: Being part of a gated community incurs a monthly association fee ($188.0) and typically comes with HOA rules and regulations that may limit personal modifications or activities, which some buyers might find restrictive.
