More Insights
Built in 1945 (80 years old).
Condition: Built in 1945, this property is an older home that has been well-maintained and features some updates. The kitchen, while described as 'updated,' shows a style (cabinetry, granite countertops, and tile flooring) that appears to be 15-25 years old, not recent. The main living areas benefit from newer laminate flooring and fresh paint. However, the overall aesthetic in key areas like the kitchen is dated, and the property's age suggests older major systems. The single bathroom for three bedrooms is also a functional limitation. It is move-in ready but would benefit from minor cosmetic updates to align with current styles.
