Built in 1990, this property has received significant functional upgrades such as new HVAC units, new pool equipment, paid-for solar, and fresh paint and carpet. The main kitchen features a high-end Wolf range, but the overall style with its wood cabinetry, brick details, and tiled backsplash appears dated, likely from a renovation 15-30 years ago. Similarly, the main bathrooms, with their tiled countertops and older fixtures, show signs of being outdated. While well-maintained and move-in ready, the aesthetic of these key areas would benefit from modernization to meet current quality standards.
