More Insights

Built in 1962 (64 years old).
Condition: This 1962 mid-century modern estate is well-maintained with updated flooring in main living areas and a clean aesthetic. However, the kitchen, while functional, features older appliances and dated solid-surface countertops. The bathrooms are significantly dated with original-style mosaic tiling and fixtures, requiring updates to meet contemporary standards. While move-in ready, these key areas show signs of being outdated, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria for a property built over 20 years ago that has been maintained but not extensively renovated recently.
