More Insights

Built in 1972 (53 years old).
Condition: Built in 1972, this property has received recent cosmetic updates such as new living room flooring, fresh interior paint, and a new water heater, along with a roof replacement by the HOA in 2019. These updates contribute to its well-maintained appearance. However, the bathroom, while featuring an updated vanity and fixtures, displays a dated shower tile pattern that suggests a renovation approximately 15-30 years ago, not a recent extensive overhaul. Crucially, no images of the kitchen are provided, which typically indicates it has not undergone a significant, recent renovation. While move-in ready, the property's age and the visible style of the bathroom indicate it requires minor updates to meet current aesthetic standards, aligning with a 'Fair' condition.
