More Insights
Built in 1958 (68 years old).
Condition: Built in 1958, this home shows its age, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen features highly outdated cabinets, laminate countertops, a very dated pink tiled backsplash, and older appliances that require full replacement. Bathrooms are functional but also dated with older tile and fixtures. While there are some positive updates like fresh interior paint and dual-paned windows, the hardwood floors are worn and need refinishing, and popcorn ceilings are present throughout. The property is livable but requires substantial renovation in key areas to meet modern standards, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria.
