More Insights

Built in 1948 (77 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1948, is move-in ready and appears well-maintained with recent cosmetic updates. However, the kitchen features somewhat dated granite countertops and ceramic tile flooring, and the bathrooms have basic fixtures and similar tile. A significant factor is the presence of wall heaters instead of a modern central HVAC system, indicating older major components. While functional, these elements show signs of being outdated and would require minor updates to meet current quality and style standards, aligning with the 'fair' category.
