More Insights
Built in 1970 (56 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1970, is well-maintained and functional, with a notable, well-kept outdoor entertainment area including a pool and solar panels. However, the interior, particularly the kitchen and bathrooms, are significantly dated. The kitchen features original-style dark wood cabinets, tiled countertops, and older white appliances. Bathrooms also show older vanities and tile work. Flooring consists of dated carpet and linoleum/vinyl. While clean and move-in ready, these areas require substantial cosmetic updates to meet modern aesthetic standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria of being aged but maintained, with major components functional but showing signs of being outdated.
