Built in 1916, this property is aged but has received recent cosmetic and functional updates, including refinished Douglas Fir floors, new vinyl plank flooring, and dual-pane windows. The kitchen features basic white cabinets, laminate countertops, and white appliances, which are functional but dated in style. The main bathroom is clean with a simple vanity and toilet but lacks modern aesthetics. The basement includes 'nonconforming spaces' with a low ceiling and a very utilitarian 'additional bathroom,' indicating significant limitations. While major systems like the floor furnace have been serviced, the overall condition reflects an older home with basic, rather than extensive, modern renovations. It is maintained and livable but requires minor updates to meet contemporary standards and address the basement's limitations.

Refinished Douglas Fir floors and new vinyl plank flooring offer a refreshed interior aesthetic and reduce immediate buyer expenses for cosmetic updates.
Dual pane windows are a significant upgrade, improving insulation, reducing noise, and contributing to lower energy costs.
