More Insights
Built in 1970 (55 years old).
Condition: Built in 1970, this property is over 50 years old. While it appears well-maintained and has 'good bones' as described, the interior, particularly the kitchen and bathrooms, is significantly dated. The kitchen features light oak cabinets, laminate countertops, older appliances (except for a newer stainless steel refrigerator), and a dated ceiling fan. Bathrooms show similar dated oak vanities and fixtures. Flooring consists of older tile and carpet. The property is functional and livable but requires substantial cosmetic updates and appliance replacements to meet current quality and style standards, aligning with the 'Fair' category's description of an aged home with functional but outdated components requiring minor updates or repairs.
