More Insights
Built in 1976 (49 years old).
Condition: The property was built in 1976, making it 48 years old. While it appears well-maintained and has some updated features, the overall style of the kitchen and bathrooms suggests renovations that are likely 15-30 years old, rather than recent. The kitchen features updated stainless steel appliances (range, dishwasher, refrigerator) and wood laminate flooring, but the white cabinets and speckled granite countertops, along with the white range hood, are not current modern styles. The bathrooms are clean and functional with similar wood laminate flooring and granite-look countertops, but the vanities, light fixtures, and shower surrounds are dated. The living area has clean carpet and a dated stone fireplace. The property is move-in ready but would benefit from cosmetic updates to align with contemporary tastes, fitting the 'fair' category's description of being aged but maintained with functional components that show signs of being outdated.
