More Insights

Built in 1963 (63 years old).
Condition: Built in 1963, this A-frame home features a highly dated interior that requires substantial rehabilitation. The kitchen has original-style knotty pine cabinets, old laminate countertops, and very dated appliances. Both bathrooms also exhibit outdated fixtures, vanities, and tile work, indicating a need for full modernization. While the property appears structurally sound and has some functional updates like mini-split AC units, the overall aesthetic and condition of key living spaces (kitchen, bathrooms, and flooring throughout) are significantly behind current standards, necessitating a major renovation to meet contemporary buyer expectations.
