More Insights

Built in 1952 (74 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1952, is well-maintained with good structural integrity and appealing hardwood floors throughout the main living areas. One bathroom has been updated with modern fixtures and a walk-in shower. However, the kitchen is explicitly noted as needing cosmetic updates, featuring older white appliances and traditional cabinetry, and at least one other bathroom appears largely original or an older renovation. While move-in ready, the outdated kitchen and one bathroom require minor renovations to meet current aesthetic and functional standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
