More Insights

Built in 1969 (56 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1969, is well-maintained with notable upgrades such as hardwood floors, crown molding, skylights, and a smooth-finish ceiling. Newer stainless steel Whirlpool appliances are a plus in the kitchen. However, the kitchen features dated tile countertops and older cabinet styles, and the bathroom, while clean, also presents an outdated vanity, tile, and a walk-in tub that may not appeal to all buyers. The wall-mounted AC unit in the bedroom is also an older system. These elements indicate that while the home has received some updates and regular upkeep, the core aesthetic of the kitchen and bathroom has not undergone a modern renovation within the last 15 years, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
