More Insights
Built in 1987 (39 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1987, is move-in ready and has undergone significant updates. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and modern tile flooring. Bathrooms are updated with contemporary vanities, granite, and tiling. Key systems like the roof, windows, and solar are also updated. While the original build year is older, these extensive renovations, likely within the last 5-15 years, bring the property's condition to a 'good' standard, despite the noted lack of central air conditioning.
