Built in 1972, the property is well-maintained but shows significant signs of age and outdated styles. The kitchen features dated tiled countertops and backsplash, painted cabinets, and a mix of older appliances. Bathrooms have basic fiberglass tub/shower units and fixtures. While some appliances are newer (washer/dryer, water heater), and the property appears clean, the overall aesthetic and major components like the kitchen, bathrooms, and wall AC units are outdated and would require minor to moderate updates to meet current buyer expectations.
