Condition Rating
Good
Built in 1978, this property has undergone significant and stylish cosmetic updates, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen features modern white painted cabinetry, light countertops, subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and recessed lighting. Bathrooms boast new vanities, modern fixtures, and updated tiling. New hardwood flooring and recessed lighting are present throughout the main living areas and bedrooms, giving the home a bright, current, and move-in ready feel. While these visible updates are excellent, the property's age suggests that major systems (HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roof) may not have been fully replaced, as indicated by the property analysis, preventing an 'Excellent' rating. However, the extensive and high-quality renovations to key areas place it firmly in the 'Good' category.

Extensive Community Amenities: The property is located within The Villages Golf & Country Club, a gated 55+ community offering resort-style living with golf, multiple swimming pools, tennis and pickleball courts, fitness facilities, clubhouses, dining options, walking paths, and a full calendar of social activities.
Single-Level & Private Living: This single-level home with no one above provides desirable ease of access, enhanced privacy, and is a highly sought-after feature within a 55+ community.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =2511, other record lot size in square feet = 3360. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 2.
Exorbitant Association Fee: The monthly association fee of $1,689 is exceptionally high, significantly increasing the total cost of homeownership and potentially deterring a broad range of buyers.
Age of Property & Potential for Deferred Maintenance: Built in 1978, despite some interior freshening, the property's age suggests potential for older major systems (e.g., HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roof) that may require future maintenance or replacement, which is not explicitly addressed as updated.
Limited Market Appeal (55+ Community): While a strength for its target demographic, the 55+ age restriction significantly narrows the pool of potential buyers, which could impact resale value and time on market compared to unrestricted properties.
