More Insights

Built in 1990 (35 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1990, is in very good condition, largely due to the kitchen being extensively remodeled in the last year with solid wood cabinetry, quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances, making it virtually new. While the overall structure is 34 years old, the images show a well-maintained interior with clean tile and carpet flooring, and no immediate renovations appear necessary. The bathrooms are not explicitly shown, but the quality of the kitchen renovation suggests a well-cared-for home. It is move-in ready, but not all components are 'virtually new' to qualify as 'Excellent'.
