More Insights
Built in 1979 (47 years old).
Condition: This home, built in 1979, has undergone extensive recent cosmetic renovations, including new paint, flooring, baseboards, updated kitchen with new quartz countertops and painted cabinetry, and refreshed bathrooms with new vanities and light fixtures. These updates make the property move-in ready and aesthetically modern. However, some kitchen appliances appear older, and the bathroom shower tiles retain an older style. Crucially, the listing does not specify upgrades to major underlying systems like HVAC, plumbing, or electrical wiring, which are likely original or older given the build year. While significantly improved, these factors prevent it from reaching an 'Excellent' score where all components are virtually new.
