More Insights

Built in 1976 (50 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1976, has undergone significant updates in key areas such as the kitchen (custom cabinetry, stone counters, travertine flooring, recessed lighting) and two of the three bathrooms (modern vanities, updated fixtures, and contemporary tile work in one). The main living areas also feature updated travertine flooring. However, the presence of white, dated kitchen appliances, older carpeting on the stairs and in bedrooms, and one full bathroom that appears largely original and very dated (vanity, shower enclosure, flooring) prevents it from achieving a 'Good' rating. While many components are functional and updated, the inconsistency in renovation across all areas means it requires minor updates to bring the entire property to a cohesive, modern standard.
