Built in 1961 (64 years old).
Condition: Built in 1961, this property is aged but appears to be maintained and move-in ready. However, the kitchen features dated tile countertops, light wood cabinets, and terracotta-colored tile flooring, indicating a significant need for modernization. The bedrooms show worn brown carpeting and basic light fixtures, with popcorn ceilings. While functional, the home clearly requires substantial cosmetic updates and renovations to meet current aesthetic and quality standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria of being aged, maintained, but showing signs of being outdated and requiring updates.
