Built in 1946 (80 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1946, features a recently updated kitchen with premium appliances and a renovated spa-style primary bathroom, both appearing modern and high-quality. The living areas and extensive outdoor spaces are also well-maintained and updated. However, the second bathroom retains a very dated, vintage aesthetic, and the listing notes an absence of a central cooling system, which are significant drawbacks preventing an 'Excellent' rating. Overall, the property is move-in ready with substantial recent updates in key areas.
