More Insights

Built in 1962 (64 years old).
Condition: Built in 1962, this property explicitly requires 'cosmetic updates and personal touches,' indicating a need for substantial rehabilitation rather than minor updates. The kitchen features very dated tile countertops and old patterned linoleum flooring, along with an outdated light fixture, suggesting it has not been significantly renovated in decades. While the hardwood floors in other areas are a positive, the overall interior style, fixtures, and likely systems (given the age and lack of mention of updates) are well past their prime. The property has 'good bones' but needs a major investment to modernize, particularly in key areas like the kitchen and likely bathrooms.
