The property is a well-maintained 1927 historic home that benefits from excellent recent mechanical updates, including a new roof, HVAC system, and water heater within the last two years. However, the interior finishes are dated and show signs of age. The kitchen features older vinyl flooring and basic cabinetry, the bathroom retains older tile work despite a newer vanity, and the family room addition contains dated wood paneling and older carpeting. While functional and move-in ready, the home requires cosmetic modernization to meet current style standards.
