More Insights

Built in 1974 (51 years old).
Condition: Built in 1974, this property has undergone significant recent renovations, including new flooring, interior paint, newer A/C, furnace, and plumbing. The HOA has also recently updated roofs, exterior paint, and driveways (within 3-4 years). While the kitchen features a modern refrigerator, the wood cabinetry, countertops, and some lighting fixtures appear dated. Similarly, the bathrooms are clean and functional but show dated styles in vanities and lighting. Overall, the property is move-in ready with well-maintained systems and recent cosmetic updates, but the kitchen and bathrooms would benefit from further stylistic modernization to achieve an 'Excellent' rating.
