More Insights
Built in 1957 (68 years old).
Condition: Built in 1957, this property is significantly older, and the listing does not indicate any major recent renovations. The exterior image shows an aged appearance with a cracked driveway and dated paint colors. While described as having a 'functional kitchen' and 'comfortable living space,' the lack of interior photos, especially for the kitchen and bathrooms, combined with the property's age, suggests these areas are likely outdated in style and features. The property appears to be maintained but requires minor updates and cosmetic improvements to meet current standards, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria.
