More Insights

Built in 1975 (51 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1975, is exceptionally well-maintained and move-in ready, featuring a newer HVAC system and updated stainless steel kitchen appliances. However, the kitchen's tiled countertops and backsplash, along with the dated styles in the bathrooms (including carpet in the master bath), indicate that these areas have not undergone extensive modern renovations within the last 15 years. While functional and clean, these elements show signs of being outdated, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
