More Insights
Built in 1953 (72 years old).
Condition: Built in 1953, this home shows signs of being aged but well-maintained with occasional updates. While the primary bathroom has been recently remodeled to a modern standard, the kitchen features traditional wood cabinets, black appliances, and older tile, suggesting a renovation from 15-30 years ago. The secondary bathroom also appears dated. The property lacks central air conditioning, which is a significant factor in San Diego. Hardwood floors in living areas are in good condition, and the exterior and deck are appealing, but the overall condition, particularly the kitchen and lack of AC, places it in the 'Fair' category, indicating it requires minor updates to meet current modern standards.
