More Insights

Built in 1973 (52 years old).
Condition: Built in 1973, this property has undergone significant updates, including fresh interior paint, recessed lighting, double-pane windows, and a remodeled primary bathroom with granite countertops and modern tile. However, the kitchen, while featuring granite countertops and stainless steel double ovens, retains traditional wood cabinets, tile flooring, and track lighting that appear to be from an older renovation (likely 15-25 years ago), making its style somewhat dated. While well-maintained and move-in ready, the kitchen's aesthetic and some light fixtures indicate it requires minor updates to meet current quality standards and styles, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
