Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1972, this property is explicitly marketed as a 'FIXER UPPER,' indicating a need for substantial renovation. The kitchen features very dated tiled countertops, backsplash, and cabinets, despite some newer stainless steel appliances. The flooring throughout includes dated ceramic and terracotta tiles, though one bedroom has newer carpet. The absence of bathroom photos, combined with the overall age and condition, strongly suggests these areas are also significantly outdated. While the property appears maintained and livable, it requires extensive updates to meet current standards, aligning with the 'poor' condition criteria for substantial repairs and rehabilitation.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Location: The property boasts an outstanding, elevated location within the highly desirable Magnesia Falls Cove subdivision.
No HOA: Absence of a Homeowners Association provides financial flexibility and freedom from restrictive community rules.
Scenic Views: Offers desirable mountain and valley views, enhancing the property's aesthetic appeal and potential value.
Architectural Character: A 1970s-built home with a 'sweet Spanish vibe' provides unique character and a distinct architectural style.
Established Landscaping: The property features lovely, established landscaping, contributing to immediate curb appeal.
Cons
Fixer-Upper Condition: Explicitly marketed as a 'FIXER UPPER,' indicating a need for significant renovation and capital investment.
Age and Required Updates: Built in 1972, the property likely requires substantial updates to systems, finishes, and overall modernization.
Price History and Valuation: Multiple price reductions and a current list price above the estimated market value suggest potential overpricing or challenges in market absorption.
