More Insights

Built in 1966 (60 years old).
Condition: Built in 1966, this property shows its age with a very dated kitchen featuring white tile countertops, matching tile flooring, older dark cabinets, and an outdated fluorescent light panel. While the bathroom vanity appears to have been updated, the flooring is still an older tile style. The property utilizes an evaporative cooling system, which is less efficient and desirable than modern central air conditioning. Some cosmetic updates like laminate flooring in a bedroom and a decorative accent wall in the dining area are present, but the core elements, especially the kitchen, require substantial renovation to meet current quality and style standards. The home is functional and appears maintained, but many components are outdated.
