More Insights

Built in 1950 (76 years old).
Condition: Built in 1950, this home is well-maintained and clean, but shows signs of being aged with updates that are not recent. The kitchen, while functional, features white appliances, granite countertops, and tile flooring that appear to be 15-25 years old, aligning with an older renovation. While the primary bathroom vanity has more modern elements like LVP flooring and updated sinks/faucets, the overall property requires minor updates to modernize its aesthetic and bring it up to current standards. It is move-in ready but not extensively renovated within the last 15 years.
