Built in 1959 (67 years old).
Condition: Built in 1959, the property is well-maintained but shows significant signs of aging in key areas. The kitchen features dated oak cabinets and tile countertops, though some appliances appear newer. The bathroom also has dated tile and fixtures. While functional and livable, the aesthetic and finishes throughout, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms, suggest renovations were done 15-30 years ago, requiring minor updates to meet current standards.
