More Insights

Built in 1940 (86 years old).
Condition: While the property benefits from recent cosmetic updates like fresh paint, new windows, and updated landscaping, the kitchen and bathroom styles appear to be 15-25 years old, featuring white appliances, traditional wood cabinets, granite countertops, and dated beige tile in the bathroom. The finished basement's wood paneling is also significantly outdated. The home is move-in ready and well-maintained, but key areas require minor updates to meet current aesthetic standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
