Built in 1994, the property is 30 years old. While the roof and well are recent (2-3 years old), the interior, particularly the kitchen with its 90s oak cabinets and older appliances, and the living area with dated carpeting and a wall-mounted AC unit, shows signs of being outdated. The overall style and features suggest no major interior renovations since construction, requiring minor updates to meet contemporary standards.
