More Insights

Built in 1968 (58 years old).
Condition: The property features a recently remodeled, oversized gourmet kitchen with modern white cabinetry, high-end appliances, and sleek black tile flooring, along with a beautifully updated primary bathroom. However, the year built (1968) and the presence of at least one older-style bathroom (with gold-framed shower doors and mirrored walls) and some dated decor elements (e.g., ornate gold crown molding, mirrored bedroom walls) indicate that while significant updates have been made, the property has not undergone a full, comprehensive recent renovation. It is move-in ready with well-maintained systems, but some areas show their age or a specific, less contemporary style.
