More Insights
Built in 1989 (36 years old).
Condition: Built in 1989, this townhouse is 35 years old. The listing describes it as 'mint condition proud ownership,' indicating good maintenance. The kitchen features updated stainless steel appliances and recessed lighting, which are positive functional updates. However, the wood-toned cabinets and countertops appear dated in style, suggesting they are either original or from an older renovation (likely 15-30 years ago). The flooring in the living areas also appears well-maintained but not newly installed. While the property is clearly well-kept and move-in ready, the overall aesthetic and fixed elements in the kitchen show signs of being outdated, preventing it from meeting the 'Good' criteria for extensive recent renovations.

Gated Community with Amenities: Located within a secure gated complex offering direct access to a common pool and spa, enhancing lifestyle and security.
Convenient Central Location: Positioned near essential amenities including shopping, public transportation, and schools, providing ease of access for residents.
