More Insights

Built in 1972 (54 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1972, shows good overall maintenance and benefits from recent significant system upgrades like a new Tesla solar system, water heater, and central AC. However, the kitchen features dated tiled countertops, light wood cabinets, and fluorescent lighting. Bathrooms also exhibit older styles with similar wood cabinetry, dated fixtures, and gold-framed shower doors. While functional and clean, these key areas require substantial cosmetic updates to meet current quality and style standards, aligning with the 'Fair' category's description of an aged but maintained home with outdated major components.
