More Insights
Built in 1981 (44 years old).
Condition: While the property boasts a significant $300,000 exterior renovation in 2022, the interior, particularly the kitchen and primary bathroom, shows signs of being outdated. The kitchen features older white appliances, dated granite countertops, and a fluorescent ceiling light. The primary bathroom, though spacious with a 'spa area,' has a specific marble-look tile style that appears to be from a renovation 15-25 years ago, rather than a recent modern update. The overall interior is well-maintained and move-in ready, but the aesthetic in these key areas would likely prompt a buyer to consider cosmetic updates.
