More Insights
Built in 1952 (73 years old).
Condition: Built in 1952, this home has been well-maintained with cosmetic updates including a 'remodeled kitchen' and 'updated bathroom'. While the kitchen boasts modern white shaker cabinets, light countertops, and subway tile, the black appliances and fluorescent ceiling light are visibly outdated. The hardwood floors are in good condition. The property is move-in ready, but the mix of updated and outdated features, particularly in the kitchen, aligns with the 'Fair' category, indicating an aged but maintained home where major components are functional but show signs of being outdated and could benefit from minor updates.
