Condition: Built in 1990, this property is over 30 years old. While it benefits from recent exterior updates like a new roof (2021) and fences (2020), the interior, especially the kitchen and bathrooms, are significantly dated. The kitchen features original-era oak cabinets, tile countertops, and older white appliances. Bathrooms also show dated vanities, fixtures, and tile work. Flooring consists of older carpets and linoleum. The property is functional and appears well-maintained, but requires substantial cosmetic updates and modernization in key areas to align with current styles and buyer expectations.
