More Insights
Built in 1985 (40 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1985, has received recent cosmetic updates including fresh paint and new vinyl plank flooring throughout. The main bathroom vanity appears updated with modern cabinets and countertops. The kitchen features white cabinets and a stainless steel refrigerator, suggesting some updates, but the overall style is not fully contemporary. However, the major underlying systems (HVAC, plumbing, electrical) are likely original or nearing 40 years old, as indicated by the property analysis, which means they are functional but show signs of being outdated and may require future attention. Some dated features, such as the mirrored walls and the style of the shower enclosure, are also present. While move-in ready due to cosmetic improvements, the age of major systems and some design elements prevent it from achieving a 'Good' rating.
