Property is moderate renovation needed.

Built in 1976, the home is well-maintained and move-in ready but remains largely in its original state. The interior features dated wood paneling, older carpeting, and 1970s-style kitchen and bathrooms that require cosmetic modernization. While functional, the property lacks recent renovations to its major systems and finishes.
