More Insights
Built in 1984 (41 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1984, has undergone significant recent cosmetic renovations totaling over $35,000, including new LG stainless steel kitchen appliances, granite countertops, modern mosaic backsplash, new flooring (wood-look laminate and carpet), and fresh interior paint. One bathroom features a modern vanity and lighting. While the kitchen and main living areas present as modern and move-in ready, the second bathroom retains dated orange/brown shower tiles and popcorn ceilings are present, indicating that the renovation was not comprehensive. However, the extensive updates to key areas like the kitchen and overall fresh appearance justify a 'Good' rating, as it is largely move-in ready with functional systems, despite some components showing their age or being aesthetically outdated.
