More Insights

Built in 1981 (45 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1981, presents a clean and well-maintained appearance with recent cosmetic updates such as fresh paint and new laminate flooring throughout. However, the kitchen and bathrooms largely retain their original 1980s aesthetic. The kitchen features dated wood cabinets, tiled countertops, and older appliances (notably the double wall oven). Similarly, the bathrooms have original-style wood vanities, tiled countertops, and gold-framed shower doors. While functional, these key areas are significantly outdated and would require substantial renovation to meet current buyer expectations and modern styles, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
