More Insights

Built in 1965 (61 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1965, the property has been 'fully remodeled' as stated in the description, and the images strongly support this. The kitchen features modern dark wood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, contemporary countertops, and a stylish mosaic backsplash, all appearing virtually new. Bathrooms are also extensively updated with modern vanities, tiling, and fixtures. Flooring throughout is consistent wood-look tile and LVP, and lighting is recessed and modern. The overall aesthetic is fresh, clean, and meets current quality standards with no visible deferred maintenance. The outdoor amenities are also well-maintained and modern, contributing to a high-quality, move-in ready condition.
