More Insights
Built in 1938 (88 years old).
Condition: Built in 1938, this home is well-maintained with original hardwood floors and vintage charm. However, the kitchen features dated wood cabinets, tile countertops, and older white appliances, while the bathroom has an older vanity and basic tile. Major systems like heating (wall heaters) also show signs of being outdated. It is functional and livable but requires significant cosmetic updates to meet current standards.
