More Insights
Built in 1980 (45 years old).
Condition: The property was built in 1980, making it 44 years old. While it appears well-maintained with fresh paint and clean flooring (hardwood and carpet), many elements show their age. The kitchen features a mix of newer (refrigerator, backsplash) and older (cabinets, dishwasher, overall layout) components, suggesting partial updates rather than a full modern renovation. Light fixtures throughout are largely dated, and the fireplaces have an older aesthetic. Without bathroom images, it's assumed they align with the general condition. The property is functional and livable but would benefit from significant cosmetic updates, especially in the kitchen and potentially bathrooms, to meet current buyer expectations. This aligns with the 'Fair' category, indicating it's aged but maintained, with functional but outdated major components.
