More Insights

Built in 1986 (40 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1986, has undergone significant recent updates including brand-new luxury vinyl wide-plank flooring, newly painted interiors, a newer dual Lennox HVAC system, dual water heaters, and updated electrical components (Leviton switches/outlets, LED lighting). One bathroom has been recently remodeled to an ADA accessible standard with modern finishes. While the kitchen features fresh white cabinets and new flooring, the tile countertops and some appliances appear dated. Two of the other bathrooms are clean and functional but also show older styling with tile countertops and tub surrounds. Overall, the home is move-in ready with no immediate renovations required, but not all components are 'virtually new' to warrant an 'Excellent' score.
