More Insights

Built in 1958 (68 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1958, the property features a recently remodeled kitchen with white shaker cabinets, dark countertops, and subway tile backsplash, along with recessed lighting throughout. The wood-look tile flooring in the kitchen and dining area is modern. While the living room and bedrooms have older, but well-maintained, large beige tile, and the bathroom's pedestal sink and accent tile show some age, the unit is presented as 'turnkey' and is clearly move-in ready with no immediate renovations required. The overall condition reflects a property that has been extensively updated within the last 5-15 years, making it functional and appealing.
