Built in 1975 (50 years old).
Condition: Built in 1975, this property is aged but appears well-maintained with functional systems, including recent updates like copper plumbing and a less than two-year-old water heater. However, the kitchen features very dated tile countertops, older appliances, and original-style oak cabinets, while the bathrooms also show significant signs of being outdated with dated wallpaper and flooring. The overall aesthetic, including carpeting and light fixtures, requires minor to substantial updates to meet current quality and style standards.
