More Insights

Built in 1990 (35 years old).
Condition: Built in 1990, this property is well-maintained but shows its age in key areas. While the kitchen boasts granite counters, the appliances (black refrigerator, white built-in oven/microwave/cooktop) and tile flooring are dated. The primary bathroom features very dated tiled countertops and shower surrounds, typical of 1990s construction, despite a jetted tub. Other areas have a mix of older tile, neutral carpet, and some updated hardwood flooring. The overall condition suggests regular upkeep, but significant modernization would be required to meet current aesthetic standards, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms.
