More Insights

Built in 1994 (31 years old).
Condition: The property was built in 1994, making it 30 years old. While it appears to be meticulously maintained with high-quality materials like artisan tile flooring, wood ceilings, and marble in the bathroom, the kitchen and bathroom styles are distinctly dated. The kitchen features tile countertops and traditional wood cabinetry, which are not contemporary. The bathroom, despite having marble, also reflects a late 90s aesthetic. These areas, while functional and clean, would likely require significant cosmetic updates to meet current design standards, aligning with the 'Fair' criteria of being built over 20 years ago with major components showing signs of being outdated, and requiring minor updates or repairs.
