More Insights

Built in 1977 (48 years old).
Condition: While built in 1977, this property boasts significant recent upgrades to major systems, including a brand-new roof, 5-year-old HVAC, 2-year-old tankless water heater, owned solar panels, and top-of-the-line Andersen windows, making it highly functional and energy-efficient. The interior features hardwood, tile, and marble flooring, custom lighting, and ceiling fans. However, the kitchen, with its tile countertops, checkered flooring, and traditional white cabinets, along with the bathrooms featuring dated tile styles, are clean and well-maintained but do not reflect current modern aesthetics. These areas, while functional and in good condition, would likely benefit from cosmetic updates to meet contemporary buyer preferences, thus preventing an 'Excellent' rating. The property is otherwise move-in ready with no immediate renovation required for functionality.
