More Insights
Built in 1939 (87 years old).
Condition: Built in 1939, this property is over 80 years old. The description highlights its 'original Spanish influence' and 'period detail,' strongly suggesting that while charming, the interior finishes, kitchen, and bathrooms are likely outdated and have not undergone major renovations in recent decades. The property analysis explicitly notes 'Age-Related Maintenance' and the potential need for updates to systems like plumbing and electrical. While the exterior appears maintained, the cracked driveway and general appearance suggest it hasn't been recently updated. Without interior photos, a precise assessment of kitchen and bathroom conditions is impossible, but given the age and description, they are presumed to be functional but significantly dated, requiring minor to moderate updates to meet current standards. It is livable but not move-in ready without substantial cosmetic and system modernizations.
