More Insights
Built in 1948 (77 years old).
Condition: Built in 1948, this property has been 'thoughtfully updated over the years' as described. The kitchen features functional stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and wood cabinets, which appear to be updated but not brand new, likely 10-20 years old. The bathroom also shows updates with a granite vanity and modern fixtures. While clean and well-maintained, the presence of window AC units instead of central HVAC indicates an older system that would require significant investment to modernize. The flooring (hardwood/laminate, carpet) is in good condition. The property is livable and functional, but its age and the style/extent of renovations, particularly the lack of central cooling/heating, align with the 'Fair' category, suggesting it requires minor updates or repairs to meet current standards, even with the new solar and battery backup.
