More Insights
Built in 1974 (52 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1974, is well-maintained with fresh paint and tile flooring throughout. The kitchen features painted cabinets, granite-look countertops, white appliances, and a subway tile backsplash, which appear to be functional and clean but stylistically dated, likely from a renovation 15-25 years ago. The bathroom similarly shows clean but dated fixtures and finishes. While move-in ready, it would benefit from minor cosmetic updates to align with current trends.
