Built in 1999 (26 years old).
Condition: This property, built in 1999, has undergone extensive and high-quality renovations, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms, which feature modern 'designer style finishes.' The kitchen boasts white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, a contemporary geometric tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and recessed lighting. Both bathrooms are fully updated with modern vanities, fixtures (including a freestanding soaking tub and large walk-in shower in the primary), and stylish tile work. New LVP flooring is present throughout the main living areas and bedrooms. While the core systems (HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roof) may be older due to the 1999 build year, the visible and functional components are virtually new, meet current quality standards, and show no signs of deferred maintenance, aligning with the 'excellent' criteria for extensively renovated properties.
