More Insights

Built in 1969 (56 years old).
Condition: Built in 1969, this property is aged but appears to be well-maintained and functional. The description notes 'newer vinyl clad windows' and a 'new water heater' to be installed, indicating some upkeep. However, the kitchen features dated 'white foil cabinetry' and 'white appliances,' and the primary bathroom showcases 'Roman style soaking tub and gold fixtures,' which are significantly outdated. The overall aesthetic, including carpeting and light fixtures, suggests the property has not undergone a major renovation in several decades. While livable, it explicitly states it's 'ready for you to update,' implying substantial cosmetic renovations are needed, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms, to meet current standards. It is not in disrepair or unsafe, but its major components are functional yet show clear signs of being outdated.
