More Insights
Built in 1992 (33 years old).
Condition: Built in 1992, this property is 32 years old. While it benefits from recent updates in 2024, including a new roof, new carpets, and fresh interior paint, the kitchen and bathrooms show significant signs of being outdated. The kitchen features honey oak cabinets and a tiled backsplash that are not contemporary, though the stainless steel appliances appear newer. The bathrooms, particularly the master and guest baths, have dated beige/light yellow tile work and cabinet styles that are consistent with the original build or an early renovation. The property is well-maintained and move-in ready, but the aesthetic of these key areas would require minor updates to meet current buyer preferences, aligning it with a 'Fair' condition score.
