More Insights
Built in 1959 (66 years old).
Condition: Built in 1959, this property has undergone some updates, including dual-pane windows and laminate/tile flooring. The kitchen features solid wood cabinetry and granite countertops, but the white appliances and overall style suggest a renovation from 15-30 years ago, making it functional but dated. The bathroom has a more modern vanity and fixtures, indicating a more recent update, but the tub/shower tile is not brand new. While well-maintained, the property's age and the style of the kitchen indicate it requires minor updates to meet current aesthetic standards and likely has older major systems (HVAC, plumbing, electrical) that may need attention in the future.
