More Insights

Built in 1980 (46 years old).
Condition: Built in 1980, this property is well-maintained and boasts significant character with custom woodwork, vaulted ceilings, and hardwood floors in many areas. However, the kitchen, while functional, features traditional wood cabinetry, dated backsplash, and integrated appliances that appear to be from an older renovation or the original build. The bathrooms are notably outdated, with blue tiled countertops and tub surrounds, and older brass fixtures, suggesting they are 30-40+ years old. While the home is livable and charming, these key areas require substantial cosmetic updates to meet contemporary standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria of being aged but maintained, with major components showing signs of being outdated.
