More Insights

Built in 1982 (44 years old).
Condition: Built in 1982, this property is well-maintained with several positive updates such as engineered wood flooring, composite granite countertops, a new dishwasher, and a newer HVAC system. However, the kitchen cabinets, bathroom vanities, and some light fixtures appear dated, suggesting an older renovation or well-preserved original components. While move-in ready, the property would benefit from cosmetic updates in the kitchen and bathrooms to align with current styles, fitting the 'Fair' criteria of being aged but maintained with functional components showing signs of being outdated.
