More Insights
Built in 1991 (34 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1991, is well-maintained with hardwood floors and clean living spaces. However, the kitchen features white raised-panel cabinets, light-colored stone countertops, and stainless steel appliances that, while functional, appear stylistically outdated and likely from an older renovation (15-20+ years ago) or original to the build with some updates. The bathrooms also present a clean but dated aesthetic with similar cabinet styles and tile choices. The listing description's phrase 'Enjoy as is or build your dream home' further suggests that while livable, the home's interior design, particularly the kitchen and bathrooms, would benefit from significant modernization to meet current luxury standards, aligning with the 'Fair' category where major components are functional but show signs of being outdated.
