Property is moderate renovation needed.

Built in 1946, this home is well-maintained with classic features like hardwood floors and wood-beamed ceilings, but the kitchen and bathrooms appear dated and lack modern designer finishes. While the property includes a modern tankless water heater and functional systems, it shows signs of age consistent with a home that has not undergone a comprehensive renovation in recent decades.
