More Insights
Built in 1980 (45 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1980, presents a mixed condition. The kitchen has been updated with white shaker-style cabinets, dark granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, which is a significant positive. However, the bathrooms are notably outdated with 1980s-style tile and carpet flooring, requiring substantial renovation for modern appeal and hygiene. The general flooring throughout the living areas (dated carpet and terra cotta tile) also indicates a need for updates. While the home appears functional and maintained, these key outdated areas prevent it from being classified as 'Good' and necessitate more than 'minor' cosmetic updates, aligning it with a 'Fair' condition.
