More Insights
Built in 1970 (55 years old).
Condition: Built in 1970, this property is over 50 years old. While the kitchen features updated appliances (flat cooktop, microwave, dishwasher) and hardwood flooring, the cabinets and countertops appear to be from an older renovation (likely 15-25 years ago), making them functional but dated. The overall aesthetic requires cosmetic updates, and the listing notes pending work like a water heater replacement. The property is livable but shows signs of age and requires minor updates to meet current standards.
