More Insights
Built in 1989 (36 years old).
Condition: Built in 1989, this property is 35 years old. However, it presents as move-in ready with several significant updates. The listing notes 'all new interior paint,' which is evident in the fresh appearance of the living areas. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, though the dark wood cabinetry and granite countertops, while well-maintained, reflect an older style rather than a truly 'modern' aesthetic. One bathroom has been extensively updated with contemporary white cabinetry, modern fixtures, and a walk-in shower, while the second bathroom is clean and functional but retains an older style. Flooring in the main living areas appears updated (hardwood/laminate), contributing to a well-kept feel. Despite the age of the property and some dated elements in the kitchen and one bathroom, the overall condition, recent paint, and updated primary bathroom elevate it beyond 'Fair' and make it a comfortable, functional home with no immediate renovation required.
