More Insights
Built in 1979 (46 years old).
Condition: Built in 1979, this property is 45 years old and shows clear signs of its age with no significant renovations. The kitchen features original-style wood cabinets, dated tile countertops, older white appliances, and linoleum flooring. The bathroom is also very outdated with a pink/peach vanity, laminate countertop, and strip lighting. While the home appears maintained and functional with central air conditioning, the interior finishes, including carpets, wallpaper, and light fixtures, are largely original and require substantial cosmetic updates to meet current standards. The description itself notes that 'a little updating could make this your dream home,' reinforcing its 'fair' condition, where major components are functional but show signs of being outdated and require minor to moderate updates.
