More Insights

Built in 1970 (55 years old).
Condition: Built in 1970, this property shows a mix of updates and original features. The kitchen benefits from granite countertops and a modern backsplash, along with a stainless steel refrigerator, but the cabinet style appears somewhat dated. The bathroom, however, clearly shows its age with an older tub and fixtures, indicating it has not been recently renovated. While the living areas feature updated flooring and unique Spruce Pine wood ceilings, the presence of a window AC unit rather than central air, combined with the dated bathroom, suggests the property requires minor updates to meet current standards and comfort expectations. It is well-maintained but shows signs of being outdated in key areas.
