More Insights

Built in 1988 (37 years old).
Condition: Built in 1988, this property is 36 years old. While the kitchen has been 'updated' with granite counters, the black painted cabinets and black appliances, along with the traditional cabinet style, suggest an update that is 10-20 years old rather than recent. The mirrored wall in the dining area is also a dated feature. The bathrooms are functional with a walk-in shower and soaking tub, but the tile style is not contemporary. Flooring has been updated to tile and laminate, which is a positive. Overall, the home is well-maintained and move-in ready, but its updates are not recent enough to be considered 'Good' and many elements show signs of being outdated, aligning with the 'Fair' category's description of a home aged but maintained with functional yet outdated major components.
