More Insights

Built in 1983 (43 years old).
Condition: Built in 1983, this property shows a mix of updates and original features. The kitchen has newer white shaker cabinets, quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances, but the floor tiling is dated. The bathrooms are functional but clearly outdated with older vanities, fixtures, and fiberglass tub/shower inserts. While the living area has newer laminate flooring and fresh paint, and a modern fireplace surround, the overall condition, particularly in the wet areas, aligns with a property that is aged but maintained through regular upkeep and occasional updates, requiring further investment to fully modernize, as also suggested by the listing description.
