Built in 2007 (19 years old).
Condition: Built in 2007, this property is 17 years old and appears to be very well-maintained, aligning with the 'Good' condition criteria. The kitchen features clean, functional dark wood cabinetry, granite countertops, and black appliances, which, while not the most current trend, are in good condition. Bathrooms are also clean with neutral tiling and functional fixtures. Flooring is a mix of well-kept carpet and tile. The overall impression from the images is a move-in ready home with minimal wear and tear, requiring no immediate renovations, though some buyers might consider cosmetic updates to the kitchen appliances or bathroom styles for a more modern aesthetic.
