Built in 1939 (87 years old).
Condition: Built in 1939, this home has been maintained and features some valuable updates such as dual-pane windows and a modern kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and recessed lighting. However, both bathrooms are significantly outdated in style and condition, requiring renovation. The presence of carpeting over hardwood floors also indicates a potential project for future owners. While livable, it requires minor to moderate updates, particularly in the bathrooms, to meet current aesthetic and functional standards.
