More Insights

Built in 1962 (63 years old).
Condition: The property was built in 1962, making it 62 years old. While the description highlights 'hardwood floors' and a 'cooks kitchen,' suggesting some updates and good maintenance, there's no indication of a full, recent renovation (within the last 5-15 years) that would qualify it as 'Good' or 'Excellent.' The property analysis explicitly notes 'Age of Property' and 'Potential for Further Modernization' as weaknesses. The kitchen, while functional, and bathrooms likely feature styles and finishes that are 15-30 years old or older, showing signs of being outdated, consistent with a 'Fair' condition rating.
