More Insights

Built in 1991 (35 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1991, is well-maintained with recent updates including new carpet, fresh paint, and brand new stainless steel kitchen appliances. However, the kitchen cabinets, countertops, and ceiling lighting, along with the style of both bathrooms (gold fixtures, tile choices, vanity styles), appear dated and are likely original or from a renovation 15-30 years ago. While move-in ready, these areas would require minor to moderate cosmetic updates to meet current aesthetic standards.
