More Insights

Built in 1954 (72 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1954, presents a mix of thoughtful updates and dated elements. While one bathroom has been beautifully renovated with modern finishes, the kitchen features older tile countertops, dated flooring, and fluorescent lighting, despite having updated stainless steel appliances. The second bathroom retains a vintage charm, indicating it has not been fully modernized. The description also labels it a 'light fixer,' suggesting minor updates or repairs are still needed to bring it to a contemporary standard. Major systems like HVAC and water heater are updated, but the overall aesthetic in key areas like the kitchen and one bathroom shows signs of being outdated, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria.
