More Insights
Built in 1962 (64 years old).
Condition: Built in 1962, this home is well-maintained and features some recent cosmetic updates like LVP flooring in main areas and a modern subway tile backsplash in the kitchen. However, the primary bathroom's style (vanity, glass block, older faucets) and the kitchen's double oven appear to be from renovations 15-30 years ago, not recent. While functional and move-in ready, it shows signs of being aged and would benefit from further modernization to meet current aesthetic standards, particularly in the bathrooms and some appliances.
