Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1948 and held by the same owner since 1967, this home is a well-maintained 'time capsule.' While it features critical structural updates like a new roof (2022) and partial plumbing replacement (2025), the interior is significantly outdated. The kitchen and den retain mid-century knotty pine paneling and older appliances, and the bathrooms and flooring reflect styles from several decades ago. It is functional and clean but requires comprehensive cosmetic modernization to meet current standards.
