More Insights

Built in 1989 (37 years old).
Condition: Built in 1989, this property is well-maintained but shows its age in key areas. The kitchen features dated light wood cabinetry and older countertops, while the bathrooms have similar dated vanities, gold-framed shower enclosures, and fluorescent box lighting. While the travertine flooring is a nice touch, its style, along with other elements like vertical blinds, suggests updates that are now 15-30 years old or original features. The home is functional and clean, but significant aesthetic updates would be required to meet modern buyer preferences, aligning with the 'Fair' category's description of an aged but maintained home with functional but outdated major components.
