More Insights
Built in 1975 (51 years old).
Condition: The property benefits from recent cosmetic updates including fresh paint, new carpet throughout, and new kitchen flooring, making the main living areas and bedrooms feel clean and move-in ready. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, but the cabinets and granite countertops are dated in style. Both bathrooms are significantly outdated in terms of fixtures, tile, and overall aesthetic. While functional, these areas would require minor updates to meet contemporary standards, aligning with a 'Fair' condition score given the property's 1975 build year and the visible signs of outdated major components.
