More Insights

Built in 1971 (54 years old).
Condition: The property consists of two homes. The main residence (built 1995) features a recently renovated, modern kitchen with white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances, along with updated major systems like new A/C units and solar panels. While some bathrooms in the main residence appear dated with 90s-style tile countertops and fixtures, they are clean and functional. The second home (built 1971) is older, and although its interior condition is not pictured, it is described as 'fully self-contained' and 'beautiful,' suggesting it is move-in ready but likely has older finishes. Overall, the property is well-maintained and move-in ready, with significant updates in the main residence balancing out the older elements.
