TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1982, the home features recent cosmetic 'refreshes' such as new light-wood flooring and fresh paint. However, the bathrooms and kitchen remain significantly dated with 1990s-era tile work and gold fixtures. While well-maintained and move-in ready, the primary systems and wet areas are over 20 years old, requiring modernization to meet current luxury standards.
