More Insights

Built in 1962 (63 years old).
Condition: Built in 1962, this property shows a mix of updates and dated features. The kitchen has been significantly renovated with modern grey shaker cabinets, white solid-surface countertops, subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and updated flooring. However, the large fluorescent ceiling light in the kitchen is a notable dated element. The bathrooms are largely original or updated 20-30+ years ago, featuring older style vanities, countertops, and fixtures, requiring substantial cosmetic updates. Throughout the rest of the home, the carpeting, ceiling fans, and lighting fixtures are dated. The family room, in particular, features a very dated drop ceiling with fluorescent panels and an older custom-built bar. While the property is well-maintained overall, and the exterior (pool, yard, solar panels) is a strong point, the interior's inconsistent updates and numerous outdated elements mean it requires significant cosmetic updates to meet current quality standards, aligning with a 'Fair' condition.
