More Insights
Built in 1979 (46 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1979, has received cosmetic updates such as tile flooring throughout, fresh paint, and crown molding, which contribute to a clean and well-maintained appearance. The kitchen features white cabinets and what appear to be relatively newer appliances (refrigerator, stove, dishwasher). However, the bathroom, while functional and clean, exhibits an outdated style with a laminate countertop and drop-in sink, suggesting it has not undergone a recent extensive renovation. The presence of a popcorn ceiling also indicates that not all aspects of the home have been fully modernized. While move-in ready, the dated bathroom and overall aesthetic place it in the 'Fair' category, indicating it's aged but maintained, with some components showing signs of being outdated, aligning with renovations likely done 15-30 years ago rather than within the last 5-15 years for a 'Good' rating.
