More Insights

Built in 2002 (23 years old).
Condition: The property was built in 2002, making it 22 years old. While described as 'freshly painted' and 'very well maintained,' the kitchen features dated tile countertops and backsplash, despite having stainless steel appliances. The bathrooms also show an older style with cultured marble/integrated sinks and dated light fixtures. The flooring is a mix of engineered wood/laminate, tile, and carpet, all appearing clean. Overall, the home is functional and well-kept but reflects its early 2000s construction with no major renovations to update the key areas to current styles, placing it in the 'Fair' category. It is move-in ready but would benefit from cosmetic updates in the kitchen and bathrooms.
