More Insights

Built in 1986 (40 years old).
Condition: Built in 1986, the property has undergone significant updates, including a modern kitchen with stainless steel appliances and white shaker cabinets, and updated bathrooms. While the bathroom tile countertops appear to be an older style of update (likely 10-20 years ago), they are clean and well-maintained. The listing confirms 'freshly painted' and 'newer flooring' (laminate in bedrooms, tile in living areas), making it move-in ready with no immediate renovations required. The overall condition aligns with a property extensively renovated within the last 5 to 15 years, fitting the 'Good' criteria.
