Condition Rating
Good

This property, built in 2003, is 21 years old, placing it just outside the 'built within 10-20 years' range for a 'Good' rating. However, the description highlights it as a 'well-kept' home in a gated community, and the images support a move-in ready condition with no immediate renovations required. The kitchen features updated white cabinets with modern black hardware, stainless steel appliances (though one wall oven is white), and granite countertops. While the granite and floor tile reflect the original build era, the overall kitchen is clean and functional. Bathrooms are also clean and well-maintained, but their style (fixtures, tile, countertops) appears original to the 2003 construction. The property benefits from fresh paint in some areas and generally well-maintained interiors. Major systems are presumed functional and within their expected lifespan for a home of this age. It's a solid, well-maintained home that could benefit from future cosmetic updates but is perfectly livable as is.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Location & Convenience: Situated in the heart of Carlsbad, offering easy access to excellent schools (including top-rated Sage Creek High School), shopping, the beach, and freeway access, enhancing desirability and future value.
Gated Community & Amenities: Located within a secure, gated community (The Terraces at Sunny Creek) that provides front yard maintenance, playgrounds, and play areas, contributing to a low-maintenance and family-friendly lifestyle.
Modern & Functional Interior Layout: Built in 2003, the home features a great open floorplan with soaring ceilings, an expansive living/dining area, a well-appointed kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, and a versatile first-floor bedroom and full bath.
Luxurious Primary Suite & Privacy: The huge primary bedroom boasts high ceilings, ample windows, built-in cabinets, a retreat area, and a large en-suite bath. The property also benefits from a private backyard with no rear neighbors, located at the end of a cul-de-sac.
Garage & EV Charging: Includes a spacious 3-car garage equipped with a Tesla charger, providing ample storage and modern convenience for electric vehicle owners.

Cons

Ongoing HOA Fees: The property is subject to a monthly association fee of $230, which adds to the overall cost of homeownership, despite covering some maintenance and amenities.
Recent Price Reduction: The listing has undergone a price reduction from its original list price, which could suggest initial overpricing or a longer market time, potentially raising questions for prospective buyers.
Limited Backyard Development: While private, the backyard description only mentions a 'fresh coat of paint on the concrete,' implying a potentially undeveloped or minimally landscaped outdoor living space compared to expectations for this price point.
