More Insights

Built in 1984 (42 years old).
Condition: While the property boasts significant recent exterior updates including a newer roof (within 5 years), new garage door, and an EV charger, the interior, particularly the kitchen and bathrooms, appears largely original or minimally updated from its 1984 build year. The kitchen features dated tile countertops, older cabinet styles, and tile flooring. Similarly, the bathrooms exhibit tile countertops and vanity styles common to the 80s/90s. The carpeted areas and mirrored closet doors also suggest an older aesthetic. The home is functional and well-maintained on the exterior, but the interior requires substantial aesthetic modernization to meet current buyer expectations, aligning with the 'Fair' condition.
