More Insights
Built in 1987 (38 years old).
Condition: Built in 1987, this property is well-maintained but shows signs of its age in its overall style and some components. While the kitchen features updated stainless steel appliances and a subway tile backsplash, the cabinet style is traditional, not modern. The bathrooms, though clean and functional, have traditional light wood vanities and fixtures that appear dated. Flooring is a mix of hardwood and older-style carpeting. The property is in good condition for its age and has received regular upkeep and some updates, but it requires minor cosmetic updates to align with current design trends and potentially some system updates as noted in the property analysis.

Excellent School District: Located within a highly-rated public school district, with elementary, middle, and high schools all receiving strong ratings (9, 8, 8 respectively).
Cons
Age of Construction (Potential for System Updates): Built in 1987, the property may require updates to major systems (e.g., HVAC, plumbing, electrical) or certain finishes to align with contemporary luxury standards, despite its classic architectural design.
Absence of Explicit Modern Amenities: The description emphasizes classic design and architectural features but does not explicitly mention modern luxury amenities such as smart home technology, advanced security systems, or recent high-end appliance/fixture upgrades, which may be expected at this price point.
Split-Level Floor Plan: While offering a main-level primary suite, the layout with secondary bedrooms on a lower level might not appeal to all luxury buyers, particularly those preferring single-story living or a more cohesive multi-level design.
