TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 2004 (22 years old), the property exceeds the 20-year threshold for a 'Good' rating. While it features brand-new interior paint and updated hard-surface flooring, the kitchen cabinetry, granite, and fireplace tile appear original to the construction date and are stylistically dated.
