Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1964, this property is 60 years old. While the bathroom appears to have received a basic update (likely 15-25 years ago) with functional but simple finishes, the kitchen is significantly outdated with older appliances and cabinetry, suggesting it hasn't been renovated in 30+ years. The overall condition is functional and appears maintained, but the finishes are very dated and would require substantial cosmetic updates to meet modern standards.
