More Insights

Built in 1987 (38 years old).
Condition: Built in 1987, this property is well-maintained but shows its age through dated finishes. The kitchen features older white appliances, speckled countertops, and patterned tile flooring, indicating it has not been extensively renovated in recent years. While the primary bathroom appears more updated with dual vanities, a soaker tub, and modern tiling, other areas like the living room's parquet flooring and some light fixtures are also dated. The property is functional and move-in ready, but a buyer would likely want to undertake minor to moderate updates, especially in the kitchen, to meet current aesthetic standards.
