More Insights
Built in 1957 (68 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1957, has received cosmetic updates in the kitchen and bathrooms, including quartz countertops, tile flooring, and newer cabinets/shower in the primary bath. However, the kitchen appliances appear older, and the overall style of the renovation suggests it may not be very recent or comprehensive. Crucially, the listing notes the absence of a cooling system (AC) and does not mention updates to major systems like plumbing, electrical, or the roof, which are significant for a home of this age. While maintained, these factors indicate the property requires minor updates and attention to older infrastructure, aligning with a 'Fair' condition.
