More Insights
Built in 1982 (44 years old).
Condition: Built in 1982, this property is well-maintained but shows its age in several key areas. While the kitchen features updated stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and a mosaic backsplash, the cabinetry style and fluorescent lighting are somewhat dated. The bathrooms, however, are significantly outdated with tile countertops, older fixtures, and a gold-framed shower door, requiring substantial cosmetic updates to meet current standards. The flooring is a mix of newer-looking laminate/tile and older carpet. Overall, the home is functional and clean, but the dated bathrooms and some kitchen elements prevent it from achieving a 'Good' rating, placing it firmly in the 'Fair' category as it requires minor updates to modernize.
