Condition Rating
Fair

Built in 2003, this property is well-maintained with recent functional updates including a new A/C, hot water heater, and some stainless steel kitchen appliances. However, the overall aesthetic of the kitchen and bathrooms, particularly the light wood cabinets, speckled granite countertops, and white bathroom surrounds, reflects its early 2000s construction and appears dated. While move-in ready, these areas would likely require minor updates to meet current style preferences, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria of being aged but maintained, with functional major components showing signs of being outdated.
Pros & Cons

Cons

Limited Buyer Pool: The property's location within a 55+ active adult community restricts potential buyers, potentially impacting market demand and resale velocity.
Modest Home Size: At 1,386 sq ft, the two-bedroom, two-bath layout may be considered compact for some buyers, especially given the large lot size.
Property Age: While well-maintained with recent upgrades, the 2003 construction date means some original components may be nearing the end of their lifespan, potentially requiring future investment.
