More Insights

Built in 1971 (54 years old).
Condition: Built in 1971, this property is over 50 years old and explicitly stated to 'need updating.' The kitchen features highly dated oak cabinets, green laminate countertops, a green tile backsplash, and older white appliances (coil-top stove, microwave, refrigerator), indicating a renovation, if any, occurred 30-50 years ago. The bathrooms, based on the glimpse and overall age, are also likely very dated. Flooring includes very dated pink carpet in the living room and master bedroom, and older tile in the sunroom. Light fixtures are generally outdated. While not structurally unsound, the property requires substantial rehabilitation and modernization to meet contemporary standards and comfort, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms.
