More Insights
Built in 2004 (21 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 2004, is 20 years old and appears well-maintained and move-in ready. It features recent cosmetic updates such as fresh paint and tile floors throughout. The kitchen includes good quality stainless steel GE Profile double oven and cooktop. While the kitchen cabinets and bathroom vanities are in good condition, their style (medium-brown wood, speckled granite in kitchen, white laminate in bathrooms) reflects the early 2000s and is not fully modern. Light fixtures are functional but not contemporary. Overall, it's a solid, well-kept home that doesn't require immediate renovations, aligning with the 'Good' criteria.
