More Insights

Built in 1989 (37 years old).
Condition: Built in 1989, the property is 35 years old. While the kitchen features updated stainless steel appliances and the HOA has completed PEX piping upgrades, the pervasive terracotta-style tile flooring throughout the main living areas and bedrooms is dated. No images of the bathrooms are provided, suggesting they are likely not recently renovated to modern standards. The property is well-maintained and functional, but its overall aesthetic, particularly the flooring and presumed bathroom conditions, shows signs of being outdated and would require minor updates to align with current luxury market expectations.
