More Insights

Built in 1962 (64 years old).
Condition: This property is in good condition, largely due to extensive recent updates to major systems. The roof is less than 5 years old, the central air and heat unit is brand new (replaced October 2025), it features dual-pane Energy Star windows, and paid-off solar panels with EV chargers. The interior boasts fresh paint and laminate flooring throughout, making it move-in ready. While the kitchen and bathroom cabinetry and tile countertops, particularly the mosaic tile in the kitchen and one bathroom, appear dated in style and contradict the description's claim of 'marble countertops,' they are clean and functional, not requiring immediate renovation for use. The property has been well-maintained, and the significant system upgrades elevate its overall quality beyond 'Fair,' despite the aesthetic age of some interior elements.
