Built in 1993 (33 years old).
Condition: This property, built in 1993, is move-in ready and benefits from significant recent updates. The major systems, including HVAC and roof underlayment, were replaced in 2020, and solar panels have been installed. Both upstairs bathrooms have been stylishly and extensively renovated with modern marble and ceramic tile, frameless glass enclosures, and contemporary fixtures, placing them in excellent condition. New carpet is also scheduled for installation in October 2025. However, while the kitchen is clean and functional with refreshed cabinets and stainless steel appliances, the granite countertops, though well-maintained, reflect a slightly older aesthetic and prevent the kitchen from being considered 'new or virtually new' to current quality standards. This slight discrepancy in the kitchen's modernity compared to the excellent bathrooms and updated systems places the overall condition in the 'Good' category, rather than 'Excellent'.
