More Insights

Built in 1990 (36 years old).
Condition: This property, built in 1990, has undergone significant and recent renovations, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen was updated within the last year with solid wood cabinetry, quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances, presenting a modern and high-quality finish. The bathrooms also feature updated vanities, countertops, and modern fixtures, including glass-enclosed showers. The overall interior is bright, clean, and well-maintained with good quality tile flooring in main areas and clean carpets in bedrooms. While the core systems' age (HVAC, roof, plumbing, electrical) is noted as a potential future consideration, the visible and critical areas of the home meet current quality standards with virtually new components, justifying an 'Excellent' rating for its current condition.
