More Insights
Built in 1970 (55 years old).
Condition: Built in 1970, this property has undergone significant interior updates that make it move-in ready. The description highlights 'modern flooring throughout,' 'dual paned windows,' and a 'well appointed kitchen with granite tops.' Images confirm light wood-look laminate flooring, updated kitchen countertops, and a modern bathroom vanity. While the kitchen cabinets are a more traditional wood tone and appliances are black (not stainless steel), they are well-maintained and functional. The bathroom has an updated vanity and mirror. These updates, particularly the flooring and windows, elevate the property's condition beyond 'Fair,' making it a solid 'Good' despite the building's age, as it requires no immediate renovations.
