The property, built in 1968, has been well-maintained and features some functional updates. The kitchen includes painted cabinets, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, which are positive updates. However, the cabinet style appears to be original and painted, rather than new, and there's no modern backsplash. The bathrooms have been 'refreshed' with 'modern fixtures & lighting' according to the description, but the images reveal dated elements such as a floral wallpaper border and older-style strip lighting above the vanity. Popcorn ceilings are visible throughout the living areas. While move-in ready and functional, the overall aesthetic and specific features in the kitchen and bathrooms indicate that the property has not undergone a full, recent renovation to meet current quality standards. It aligns with a home that is aged but maintained through regular upkeep and occasional updates, with major components functional but showing signs of being outdated.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Extensive Resort-Style Amenities: The Villages Golf & Country Club offers an exceptional array of amenities including two golf courses, six pools, four spas, fitness center, tennis, pickleball, bocce, horseback riding, hiking trails, and multiple dining options, providing a vibrant and active lifestyle.
Updated & Modernized Interior: The condo boasts an updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, along with refreshed bathrooms featuring modern fixtures, ensuring a contemporary and move-in ready living space.

Convenient & Low-Maintenance Features: Practical elements such as interior laundry, a covered parking spot just steps away, and low-maintenance laminate and tile flooring contribute to effortless daily living.

Cons

High Monthly Association Fees: The significant monthly association fee of $1243 represents a substantial ongoing cost that potential buyers must factor into their budget.
Age-Restricted Community: As a 55+ community, the property's market appeal is limited to a specific age demographic, potentially affecting resale value and buyer pool.
Original Construction Age: Built in 1968, despite interior updates, the property's original construction is over five decades old, which may imply older infrastructure or potential for future large-scale maintenance not covered by individual unit owners.
