More Insights
Built in 2001 (25 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 2001, is well-maintained and functional, but the kitchen and bathrooms are significantly dated in style. The kitchen features older white cabinets, basic granite-look countertops, white square tile backsplash, and black appliances. Both bathrooms have dated vanities, tile countertops, and fixtures, with one featuring a corner jetted tub and the other a standard tub/shower combo. While the main living areas have newer-looking laminate flooring, the bedrooms retain older carpets. The overall condition suggests regular upkeep but a lack of major renovations since construction, requiring cosmetic updates to meet modern standards.
