More Insights

Built in 1983 (42 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1983, this property has undergone thoughtful updates that make it move-in ready. The kitchen features modern stone-look countertops and stainless steel appliances, including a counter-depth fridge and dishwasher. Bathrooms have updated fixtures and vanities with neutral tones. The laminate wood flooring throughout is modern and well-maintained, and the property benefits from central heating and air conditioning. While not a full, recent renovation to 'virtually new' standards, the updates appear to be within the last 5-15 years, ensuring major systems are functional and the aesthetic is contemporary and well-kept, aligning with the 'Good' condition criteria.
