More Insights
Built in 1972 (54 years old).
Condition: Built in 1972, this property is over 50 years old. While the listing mentions 'recent upgrades' and the images show stylish furnishings, new Trex decking, a hot tub, and newer stainless steel kitchen appliances (range, refrigerator), the kitchen cabinets and countertops appear to be older and not recently updated. The single bathroom features a very dated rock wall aesthetic and an older vanity, indicating it has not undergone a modern renovation. The property is well-maintained and functional, with some modern comforts like a mini-split AC unit, but the core kitchen and bathroom elements are significantly outdated, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria for properties built over 20 years ago with major components showing signs of being outdated.
