More Insights

Built in 1973 (53 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1973, has undergone significant and recent updates, particularly in the kitchen and main living areas. The kitchen features modern white shaker-style cabinets, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, indicating a renovation likely within the last 5-15 years. The description also highlights 'wood floors throughout,' which are visible in the images and appear to be in excellent condition, a major upgrade. While the bathrooms are clean and functional, their vanity styles, countertops, and light fixtures appear more dated, possibly from a renovation 15-25 years ago, or original with minor cosmetic updates. However, they do not require immediate renovation. The overall impression is a well-maintained, move-in ready unit with key modern updates, aligning with the 'Good' criteria of being extensively renovated within 5 to 15 years in major areas, and having systems that are well-maintained with minimal wear and tear.
