More Insights

Built in 1982 (44 years old).
Condition: Built in 1982, this property retains many of its original fixtures and finishes, as confirmed by the dated kitchen cabinets, countertops, and flooring (worn carpet and sheet vinyl). The bathrooms also feature original-style vanities and fixtures. While the home is described as a 'solid, livable space' and 'move-in ready,' it clearly requires significant cosmetic updates and renovations to modernize the kitchen, bathrooms, and flooring to current standards. This aligns with the 'Fair' criteria of being aged, maintained through regular upkeep, with functional but outdated major components, and typically built within the last 25-40 years with no major renovations since construction.
