More Insights
Built in 1989 (36 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1989, is well-maintained with neutral paint and newer wood-look laminate flooring in some areas, and clean carpet in others. However, the kitchen features outdated tile countertops and backsplash, painted original-style cabinets, and an older electric range, despite having some newer stainless steel appliances (microwave, dishwasher). The bathroom appears functional but basic and likely original or minimally updated. While move-in ready, the kitchen and likely bathroom would require significant updates to meet modern aesthetic standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria for a home built over 20 years ago that shows signs of being aged but maintained through regular upkeep and occasional updates, rather than a full recent renovation.
