More Insights

Built in 1977 (48 years old).
Condition: Built in 1977, this property has undergone significant recent renovations, including freshly painted interiors and exteriors, new flooring throughout much of the home, and two beautifully remodeled bathrooms that appear virtually new with modern fixtures and finishes. The kitchen features refinished wood cabinets, modern stainless steel appliances (double oven, gas range, dishwasher), and granite countertops, presenting a clean and functional space. While the kitchen cabinets are refinished rather than brand new, the overall condition of the property, especially the key areas of bathrooms and flooring, indicates a move-in ready home with extensive updates within the last 5-15 years. The heating system is award-winning, and there is no visible deferred maintenance.
