More Insights

Built in 1986 (39 years old).
Condition: This property, built in 1986, is explicitly described as 'truly move-in ready' with significant recent updates. These include newer double-pane windows, a newer A/C unit, brand-new fridge, stove, and dishwasher, fresh paint throughout, new carpet, and updated light switches and sockets. While the kitchen features dated tiled countertops and 1980s-style cabinets, the new appliances and overall cleanliness make it fully functional. The bathrooms also appear clean and well-maintained, though not recently renovated in style. The major systems have been updated, and cosmetic elements are fresh, aligning with the 'Good' criteria of being move-in ready with no immediate renovation required, despite some components showing signs of being outdated aesthetically.
