More Insights
Built in 1990 (36 years old).
Condition: Built in 1990, this property has undergone significant recent cosmetic updates, including brand-new LVP flooring throughout and a refreshed kitchen with quartz countertops and a modern backsplash. While the kitchen cabinets appear to be original wood and appliances are black (functional but not top-tier modern), the overall impression is clean and move-in ready. Bathrooms are functional, though some fixtures like brass shower frames suggest older elements. The new deck is a plus. The property is well-maintained and updated, fitting the 'Good' category for being move-in ready with recent renovations, even if major systems (HVAC, roof) are not explicitly stated as new.
