Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1951 and on the market for the first time in decades, the home is well-maintained but significantly dated.

While functional and move-in ready, it requires modernization of the kitchen, bathrooms, and likely the mechanical systems.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 8256, living area = 1392.
