More Insights

Built in 1954 (72 years old).
Condition: This 1954-built home has received significant recent upgrades, including a remodeled main bathroom (excellent condition with modern fixtures and tile), newer roof, stucco, water heater, electrical panel, and dual-pane windows. The living areas and bedrooms are freshly painted with good flooring (hardwood/laminate). While the kitchen is clean and functional, its white appliances, wood-look laminate countertops, and fluorescent lighting are dated. The half bathroom is also dated. The absence of central air conditioning is a notable drawback. However, the extensive updates to major systems and the main bathroom, combined with the overall move-in ready condition, elevate it beyond 'Fair' despite the dated kitchen and half bath.
