More Insights
This property has been on the market for 70 days.
Built in 1970 (55 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1970, this townhome has undergone significant recent cosmetic updates, making it move-in ready. The kitchen is a standout, featuring modern white shaker cabinets, dark countertops, a stylish mosaic backsplash, stainless steel appliances (including a French door refrigerator and dishwasher), and recessed lighting. Luxury vinyl plank flooring and fresh paint are consistent throughout, giving the home a contemporary feel. However, the visible window AC unit suggests a lack of central cooling, and the underlying structure is over 50 years old, indicating that not all major systems may have been fully modernized. The extensive cosmetic renovations, particularly in the kitchen, elevate its condition beyond 'Fair', but the age of the building and potential for older core systems prevent an 'Excellent' rating.
