More Insights

Built in 1994 (31 years old).
Condition: This property, built in 1994, is exceptionally well-maintained and move-in ready with no immediate renovations required. While the kitchen features functional stainless steel appliances and dark granite countertops, the cabinet style and pendant lighting suggest an update that is 10-20 years old, rather than recent. Similarly, the bathrooms are clean and functional, but the tile patterns, vanity styles, and light fixtures are dated. However, the home benefits from significant modern upgrades such as a newly built TREX deck, a WhisperKOOL temperature-controlled wine cellar, and a fully paid 5.6 kW solar panel array. The overall condition is very good, with major systems appearing functional and well-maintained, aligning with the 'Good' score criteria for properties extensively renovated within 5 to 15 years or built within 10 to 20 years, where some components may be updated but not a full recent renovation.
