More Insights

Built in 1973 (53 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1973, this property has undergone extensive and recent renovations, bringing it to a 'move-in ready' condition. The description highlights a 'fresh new look' with a recently painted exterior, new laminate plank flooring throughout, and new windows, significantly improving energy efficiency and aesthetics. The kitchen features modern Corian countertops, upgraded stainless steel appliances (microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator), a new sink, faucet, and stylish lighting, although the blue painted cabinets appear to be refreshed older units rather than brand new contemporary ones. Both bathrooms have been tastefully remodeled with new paint, mirrors, lighting, faucets, and water-efficient toilets, presenting a clean and functional space, even if the vanity style is not ultra-modern. The addition of a mini-split system for efficient heating and cooling is a significant upgrade. While not a full gut renovation to 'excellent' standards, the property's major systems and visible components are updated, well-maintained, and functional, fitting the criteria for a 'good' condition.
