More Insights
Built in 1980 (45 years old).
Condition: Built in 1980, the property has received recent cosmetic updates including new flooring and paint, making many living areas appear fresh and move-in ready. However, the kitchen, while functional with updated appliances, features older cabinet styles and countertops. More significantly, at least one bathroom (as seen in image 6) is clearly outdated with original-era fixtures and finishes (yellowish tub), indicating it has not been part of a recent renovation. The property analysis also notes the 'Age of Core Systems' as a weakness. While maintained, the dated bathroom and potentially older core systems suggest that minor updates and repairs are needed to bring the entire property to a more contemporary standard, aligning with a 'Fair' condition.
