More Insights

Built in 1960 (66 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1960, is move-in ready with recent cosmetic updates such as fresh interior paint, new flooring in the family room, and recessed lighting. However, the kitchen features dated tile countertops and backsplash, an older built-in oven/microwave, and a dated light fixture, despite a new cooktop. Both bathrooms also exhibit dated tile counters, vanities, and light fixtures. While clean and functional, these key areas show significant signs of being outdated, indicating that the home has been maintained through regular upkeep and occasional updates rather than extensive recent renovations.
