Built in 2007 (19 years old).
Condition: Built in 2007, this luxurious estate is 17 years old and has been exceptionally well-maintained, presenting as move-in ready with no immediate renovations required. The description highlights high-end finishes like custom Alder doors, crown molding, and hardwood floors, all of which appear in excellent condition in the images. The kitchen, while described as a 'chef's kitchen with premium appliances,' features a distinctive antique-style range and granite countertops that, along with the bathroom vanities and finishes, reflect the high-quality aesthetic of its 2007 construction rather than a recent, contemporary renovation. All major systems appear functional and well-kept, aligning perfectly with the 'Good' score criteria for a property built within 10 to 20 years that is well-maintained but has not undergone a full recent renovation.
