Condition: Built in 1954, this 70-year-old property, despite recent cosmetic updates like new kitchen cabinets, countertops, and flooring, likely suffers from outdated major systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC). The visible wall heater and probable lack of central air conditioning in a desert climate indicate significant comfort and efficiency issues. The listing itself notes the age 'may indicate a need for significant updates to systems.' While the interior looks clean and freshly painted, the underlying infrastructure requires substantial repairs and rehabilitation to meet modern standards and comfort levels.
