More Insights

Built in 2003 (23 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 2003, is 21 years old, but has undergone significant and recent updates. The HVAC system and water heater were replaced in 2020, and in 2023, new carpet was installed, both bathrooms received new shower inserts, and a new washer/dryer and microwave were added to the kitchen. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances (including the new microwave and a gas range) and granite countertops, which are well-maintained, though the light wood cabinets reflect a slightly older style. The main living areas have durable laminate flooring, and the interior has fresh paint. These extensive updates make the property move-in ready with major systems well within their expected lifespan, aligning with a 'Good' condition score.
