More Insights
Built in 1962 (63 years old).
Condition: Built in 1962, the property shows signs of being well-maintained but features significantly dated elements, particularly in the kitchen with its blue-stained cabinets, tiled countertops, and older built-in appliances. Other areas, like the bar and a bedroom with a built-in for a CRT TV, also reflect an older aesthetic, likely from a renovation 15-30 years ago. While functional and move-in ready, it requires substantial cosmetic updates to meet current luxury market expectations, especially in the kitchen and potentially bathrooms (though not fully visible). Major systems may also require updating due to the property's age.
