More Insights

Built in 1953 (73 years old).
Condition: Built in 1953, the property features a 'well-appointed kitchen with island, quartzite countertops, bay window, and eat-in area,' indicating a significant update in that space. However, the listing explicitly notes 'Limited Information on Other Major Renovations' and 'Age of Property & Potential for System Updates' for core systems like plumbing, electrical, and heating. The absence of interior images for bathrooms and other living areas suggests these spaces are likely dated. While the kitchen is a strong point, the overall age of the property and the probable need for updates in other key areas and systems place it in the 'Fair' category, requiring minor updates or repairs beyond the kitchen.
