More Insights

Built in 2002 (24 years old).
Condition: Built in 2002, this property is 22 years old, placing it slightly outside the typical 'Good' age range for original construction. However, the home is exceptionally well-maintained and move-in ready with no immediate renovations required. The kitchen features quality wood cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel Dacor appliances, all in excellent condition. The primary bathroom boasts a large soaking tub, tiled shower with glass block, and double vanities, reflecting a high standard of original finishes that have been well-preserved. While the style of some elements (like the glass block in the bathroom or the specific cabinet style) might reflect its early 2000s construction, they are not outdated to the point of needing immediate replacement. The flooring (tile and clean carpet) and overall interior are in great shape, indicating regular upkeep and minimal wear and tear. The property's 'custom residence' status and 'quality finishes' mentioned in the description are evident throughout the images, supporting a 'Good' condition rating.
