Built in 1969 (57 years old).
Condition: Built in 1969, this 55-year-old home shows significant signs of age and deferred maintenance. The kitchen is severely outdated with 1970s/80s style wood paneling and tiled countertops, indicating it's either original or was last renovated 30-50+ years ago. While functional, the property requires substantial rehabilitation, particularly for the kitchen and likely other major systems (HVAC, plumbing, electrical) which are at or past their expected lifespan. The exterior landscaping also exhibits considerable neglect.
