More Insights

Built in 1994 (32 years old).
Condition: Built in 1994, this property has been 'beautifully updated' as described, featuring a modern kitchen with two-tone cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and wood-look laminate flooring. The bathrooms are clean and well-maintained with updated white vanities. The overall condition is move-in ready with tasteful updates, suggesting renovations within the last 5-15 years. However, some elements like the kitchen's fluorescent light fixture and standard bathroom vanity lighting prevent it from being classified as 'Excellent' which would require virtually new, high-end finishes throughout.
