More Insights

Built in 1974 (52 years old).
Condition: Built in 1974, this property has received recent cosmetic updates including new paint, new carpet, a new stove, freshly painted kitchen cabinets, new granite countertops in the kitchen, and new bathroom fixtures and sinks. These updates make the home move-in ready. However, several elements remain dated, such as the kitchen's mosaic tile backsplash, the main bathroom's shower tile, and the style of the living area floor tiles. While functional and well-maintained, these components show signs of being outdated, preventing it from reaching a 'Good' score, which typically implies more extensive and modern renovations for a property of this age.
