More Insights
Built in 1981 (45 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1981, has received recent cosmetic updates such as fresh interior paint, brand-new carpet, and a new roof, making it move-in ready. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, which is a positive, but the cabinets, tile countertops, and backsplash appear dated. The bathrooms, particularly the primary suite's marble-look tile and the second bathroom's pinkish tile, are significantly outdated in style. While functional and well-maintained, the aesthetic of the kitchen and bathrooms would likely require updates for most buyers, aligning with the 'Fair' criteria of being aged but maintained, with major components showing signs of being outdated.

Lack of Desirable Views: The property explicitly states 'None' for views, which may be a drawback for buyers prioritizing scenic outlooks.
Age of Structure: Built in 1981, the property's underlying structure is over 40 years old, potentially implying older systems or components not explicitly renovated beyond cosmetic updates.
Shared Wall Living: As a townhome, it involves shared walls, which can lead to less privacy and potential noise transfer compared to a detached single-family residence.
