More Insights

Built in 1987 (39 years old).
Condition: Built in 1987, this property has undergone significant and tasteful updates, particularly in the kitchen and master bathroom, which appear modern and well-maintained. The kitchen features white shaker-style cabinets, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances. The master bathroom boasts a double vanity with modern finishes and lighting. Throughout the main living areas, there is updated hardwood/laminate flooring, complemented by fresh paint and crown molding. While the second bathroom's shower doors show some age, the overall interior is move-in ready with no immediate renovations required. The primary factor preventing an 'Excellent' score is the property's original build year (37 years ago) and the noted absence of central air conditioning, suggesting that some major systems may be older, despite the visible cosmetic and functional upgrades.
