More Insights

Built in 1999 (26 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1999, is 25 years old and appears to be beautifully maintained with no immediate repairs needed. However, the kitchen, while featuring white cabinets and stainless steel appliances, has granite countertops and a tile backsplash that reflect a style from its original build era or an early 2000s renovation, rather than a modern aesthetic. Similarly, the primary bathroom's tile choices, built-in jetted tub, and vanity style are clean and functional but are stylistically dated. The flooring throughout the main living areas also features a tile style common to the late 90s/early 2000s. While well-kept, these key areas show signs of being outdated, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria for a home of its age with maintained but not recently updated finishes.
