Condition: Built in 1978, this property has been maintained with cosmetic updates such as Corian countertops, porcelain tile, and crown molding. However, the kitchen features older white appliances (except for the stainless steel refrigerator) and traditional cabinetry, suggesting a renovation that occurred 15-25 years ago. Bathrooms are clean and functional but also reflect an older style. While well-kept, the property shows signs of being outdated in key areas, requiring minor updates to meet current aesthetic standards.
