Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1962, this home is exceptionally well-maintained but remains largely dated. The kitchen and bathrooms feature older tile countertops and cabinetry styles consistent with a 20+ year-old refresh. While the property boasts some system updates like PEX piping and a newer water heater, the presence of popcorn ceilings and the lack of central HVAC (using a wall unit instead) align with the 'Fair' criteria for a functional but dated residence needing cosmetic modernization.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 7405, living area = 1417.
The property offers exceptional value with a low tax rate of only 1.14% and no HOA fees, significantly reducing the total monthly carrying costs for the buyer.
Significant peace of mind is provided by recent essential updates, including PEX re-piping, a newer water heater, a new cooktop, and fresh interior paint.
The residence relies on an AC wall unit rather than a central HVAC system, which may be less efficient for cooling the entire home during high-temperature summer months.
Built in 1962, the home may require further cosmetic modernizations beyond the recent paint to meet the aesthetic expectations of buyers seeking a fully contemporary interior.
