More Insights

Built in 1985 (41 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1985, is well-maintained and move-in ready, with functional systems and some thoughtful updates like plantation shutters, crown molding, and a newer stacked washer/dryer. The bathroom has been updated for accessibility with a walk-in shower. However, the kitchen features dated white cabinets and tile countertops, and while some appliances are modern (dishwasher), others appear older (refrigerator, range). The overall aesthetic of the kitchen and bathroom, including the tile work and vanity styles, suggests renovations that are likely 15-25 years old, rather than recent. The carpet and general finishes are clean but not new, indicating the home is aged but maintained through regular upkeep, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
