Condition Rating
Good
The property, built in 1973, features a recently and extensively updated kitchen with modern flat-panel cabinetry, high-end stainless steel appliances, and contemporary finishes. The main living areas also show significant updates with modern flooring, fresh paint, and stylish light fixtures. The exterior and pool area appear well-maintained. While the kitchen is excellent, and the overall aesthetic is very appealing and move-in ready, the absence of bathroom images and the property's age (51 years) prevent a definitive 'Excellent' score, as not all systems or areas may have been renovated to the same high standard as the kitchen (e.g., one bedroom shows different tile flooring). However, it clearly meets the criteria for 'Good' as it's extensively renovated within the last 5-15 years, is move-in ready, and shows minimal wear and tear.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Exceptional Location & Exclusivity: Situated at the top of Magnesia Falls Cove, this property is one of only 26 perimeter homes bordering Sensei Porcupine Creek, offering a truly unique and private setting.
Panoramic Views: Boasts diverse and captivating views including mountains, desert, pool, and valley, enhancing the property's aesthetic appeal and value.
Modernized Kitchen: Features a nicely updated kitchen that seamlessly expands into the dining, living, and family areas, providing a contemporary and functional space.
Luxurious Outdoor Amenities: Includes a gorgeous heated saltwater pool, creating a private and inviting outdoor retreat perfect for relaxation and entertaining.
No Homeowners Association (HOA): The absence of HOA fees offers significant cost savings and greater flexibility for property modifications and lifestyle choices.
Cons
Property Age: Built in 1973, the home is over 50 years old, which may necessitate future updates to systems or structural components beyond the already updated kitchen.
Above Market Estimation: The current listing price is approximately 7% higher than the property's estimated market value, potentially indicating an aggressive pricing strategy.
Modest Interior Square Footage: With 1601 square feet, the interior living space might be considered relatively modest for a 3-bedroom home at this price point in the Rancho Mirage market.
