More Insights
Built in 1957 (68 years old).
Condition: Built in 1957, this property has not undergone significant renovations in at least 30 years, as indicated by the listing and confirmed by the images. The kitchen and bathrooms are extremely dated with original-era fixtures, tile, and cabinetry. The overall aesthetic, including wood paneling, old carpets, and outdated light fixtures, requires substantial cosmetic and likely systemic updates (HVAC, electrical, plumbing) to meet current standards. While the description mentions it's 'well-cared-for,' the property is far from move-in ready and would be very uncomfortable for most buyers in its current state, necessitating a major rehabilitation.
