More Insights
Built in 1969 (56 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1969, has undergone updates to the kitchen and bathrooms, featuring granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and laminate/tile flooring. While these updates make the home move-in ready and well-maintained, the style of the kitchen cabinets and bathroom vanity suggests renovations that are likely 10-20 years old, not recent. A significant factor is the 'window/wall unit for cooling & heating,' indicating a lack of modern central HVAC, which is an outdated major system. This combination of an older build year with functional but somewhat dated renovations and a key outdated system places the property in the 'Fair' category, suggesting minor updates or repairs would be beneficial.
