More Insights
Built in 2003 (23 years old).
Condition: The property was built in 2003, making it 21 years old. While it benefits from recent major upgrades like a new roof and generator, the interior, particularly the kitchen and bathrooms, shows signs of being outdated in style. The kitchen features traditional wood cabinets and terracotta-style tile, though appliances are updated stainless steel. Bathrooms also have original-era wood vanities and tile countertops. The flooring is a mix of tile and carpet, which appears well-maintained but not new. The overall condition is functional and well-kept, but the aesthetic reflects its age and would require cosmetic updates to meet current design preferences, aligning with the 'Fair' category's description of an aged but maintained home with functional but outdated components.
