More Insights

Built in 1999 (27 years old).
Condition: Built in 1999, this property is 25 years old, aligning with the 'Fair' category for age. The listing description explicitly states it offers a 'solid foundation for updates, expansion, or a complete reimagining' and mentions 'Original Condition (Implied)' in the property analysis, indicating a need for modernization. The kitchen, as seen in images, features dated light wood cabinets, dark laminate countertops, black appliances, and diagonally laid tile flooring, all consistent with late 1990s/early 2000s styling. While functional, these elements require significant updates to meet current aesthetic and quality standards. No specific bathroom images are provided, but it's reasonable to infer they are in a similar, dated condition. The property is well-maintained but clearly requires substantial cosmetic updates to the interior.
