More Insights

Built in 1986 (40 years old).
Condition: Built in 1986, this property has undergone 'recent updates throughout' and features a 'modernized kitchen' with granite countertops and some stainless steel appliances. The bathrooms also show updates with granite vanities and tiled showers. The home is move-in ready and well-maintained, with systems appearing functional. However, some elements like the white kitchen appliances, the style of the main living area tiles, and certain light fixtures indicate that it hasn't received a full, top-to-bottom, contemporary renovation that would qualify it as 'Excellent'. It is in very good, functional condition, exceeding the 'Fair' category.
