More Insights

Built in 1949 (77 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1949, has been well-maintained with fresh paint and refinished original hardwood floors, making it move-in ready. However, the kitchen features significantly outdated green tiled countertops, backsplash, and flooring, along with older white appliances and a dated ceiling fan. The bathrooms also exhibit similar outdated green tile flooring and older fixtures. While functional, these key areas show clear signs of being outdated and would require minor to moderate updates to meet current aesthetic standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
