More Insights

Built in 2005 (21 years old).
Condition: Built in 2005, this property is 21 years old as of the listing date, placing it on the cusp between 'Good' and 'Fair' based on age. However, the description highlights a 'recently updated kitchen' with natural granite countertops, maple cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances, which appear to be in excellent condition in the images. The bathrooms also feature high-quality granite tile and are well-maintained. The overall property shows minimal wear and tear, with custom stonework, 16-inch tile flooring, and other thoughtful design details. While some styles (like the specific granite pattern or maple cabinets) might not be the absolute latest trend, their condition is impeccable, and the home is clearly move-in ready with no immediate renovations required. The presence of visible HVAC units on the roof confirms a functional cooling system. The property's extensive updates and meticulous maintenance elevate its condition beyond 'Fair'.
