Built in 1975 (50 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1975, is described as 'turnkey' and appears well-maintained with fresh paint and good hardwood flooring throughout. It also benefits from energy-efficient owned solar panels. However, the kitchen, while functional with stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, features traditional wood cabinets and a speckled granite style that appears to be from a renovation 15-25 years ago, showing signs of being outdated compared to current trends. No images of bathrooms are provided, but based on the kitchen, they are likely similarly updated but not recently. While move-in ready, the kitchen's aesthetic would likely require minor updates for a buyer seeking a more contemporary style, aligning with the 'Fair' category's description of functional but outdated components from a renovation 15-30 years ago.
