More Insights

Built in 1948 (78 years old).
Condition: Built in 1948, this property is well-maintained but shows significant signs of outdated style in key areas. The kitchen features functional but dated wood cabinetry, dark granite, and a white tiled backsplash. The primary bathroom, with its gold-toned fixtures, beige tiled floor, and floral-accented tub surround, appears to have been renovated 20-30+ years ago and is considerably out of style. Other bathrooms also feature older tile work. While the property is move-in ready and major systems appear functional, the aesthetic of the kitchen and bathrooms would require substantial updates for most modern buyers, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
