Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1999, the property is over 20 years old. While it features recent cosmetic 'refreshes' like new LVP flooring, carpet, and interior paint, the kitchen and bathrooms remain dated with original oak cabinetry, white tile countertops, and older appliances, necessitating future updates to meet modern standards.
