Open House Review: 9 Filare

Nicely located within Northwood’s Vista Filare Community, 9 Filare has a nice layout and sits across from the community pool, tot lot and basketball courts.  The location is the primary selling point of this property.  The home has been partially upgraded and is in clean, great condition.  It is a zero-lot-line property but with the high ceilings, bright rooms, and upgrades, it did not occur to me that it was a zero-lot line.

Bathrooms:      2.5
Square Footage: 1,425
$/Sq Ft:           $491

Open Hous Review: 58 Hazelton

Located in Stonegate, this home has been listed since February with a $60,000 price reduction on March 8.  The home boasts a ground floor bedroom, panoramic patio doors and a large upstairs loft.  Although the home is only 150 square feet smaller than last week’s model, which was only one street over, there were enough differences in the layout and some of the upgrades, that I wonder which home will sell first.

The basics:
Asking Price: $1,329,500
Bedrooms: 4 + loft
Bathrooms: 4
Square Footage: 3,000sq ft
Lot Size:  4,008 sq ft

Open House Review: 110 Baritone

Located in Stonegate, this condominium is listed as a 3 bedroom, however it is currently a 2 bedroom plus a den. The den can easily function as a bedroom, but it does not have a closet.  The open house was busy. While the home was staged nicely, the master bathroom has been well used and a few scuff marks were visible in the paint throughout the home.  Otherwise the rest of the rooms and the home was in good condition.

The basics:
Asking Price: $748,000
Bedrooms: 3
Bathrooms: 2.5
Square Footage: 1,555
$/Sq Ft: $481

Open House Review: 23 Eden

Today I am reviewing a single level home in Northwood’s Park Paseo Community, nicely located at the end of the cul-de-sac, where one of the two community pools are.   As of March 13, the status of the home is “Accepting Backup Offers”. Single level homes do not come on the market often in Park Paseo and this home would be desirable for a family wanting to be close to the amenities as well as walking distance to the Santiago Elementary and walking or biking distance to Sierra Vista Middle School and Northwood High School.

Asking Price: $795,000
Bedrooms: 3
Bathrooms: 2
Square Footage: 1,560
Lot Size: 4,356
$/Sq Ft: $510
Property Type: Single Family Residence
Year Built: 1980
Community: Northwood – Park Paseo
HOA dues are $106 per month and there no are Mello Roos taxes.
