More Insights

Built in 1977 (49 years old).
Condition: Built in 1977, the property shows signs of regular maintenance and some updates, such as the new solar system, serviced HVAC, and plantation shutters. However, the kitchen features dated cabinets, laminate countertops, an older backsplash, and fluorescent lighting, indicating it was either an older renovation or largely original with appliance upgrades. While the bathroom appears more recently updated, the overall aesthetic and key components in the kitchen suggest the property requires minor updates to meet current styles and standards, aligning with a 'Fair' condition.
