More Insights
Built in 1958 (67 years old).
Condition: Built in 1958, this home shows significant signs of age with very outdated interiors. The kitchen features original or very old wood cabinets, worn laminate/tile countertops, older white appliances, and dated fluorescent lighting. Both bathrooms have older vanities, fixtures, and small square tiling, requiring full renovation. The property lacks central air conditioning, a major system deficiency, and the washer/dryer hookups have been moved outside. While the exterior appears maintained and solar panels are a plus, the interior finishes and major systems require substantial rehabilitation to meet modern standards, aligning with the 'poor' condition criteria.
