More Insights

Built in 2004 (21 years old).
Condition: This property was rebuilt from the ground up in 2004, making it 20 years old, which aligns with the 'Good' category for age. The kitchen features granite countertops, stainless-steel appliances, and custom wood cabinetry, all appearing in very good, well-maintained condition. The bathrooms are clean and functional, with the primary suite boasting a spa-inspired steam shower, indicating quality features. Flooring is a mix of tile and hardwood, both in good shape. While the overall style is solid and well-maintained, some elements like the specific tile choices in the secondary bathroom reflect its 2004 renovation rather than a brand-new aesthetic. The property is move-in ready with no immediate renovations required, and major systems are functional, though the absence of central air conditioning is noted.
