More Insights

Built in 1940 (86 years old).
Condition: The main residence, built in 1940, shows evidence of past renovations, particularly in the kitchen and bathroom. While functional and well-maintained, the kitchen features a mix of older and newer appliances, and the cabinets/countertops appear dated, likely from a renovation 15-25 years ago. The bathroom's ornate vanity and tile work also suggest a renovation from a similar period, making the style outdated rather than current. The flooring throughout the main living areas appears to be a laminate or vinyl plank in good condition. Overall, the property is aged but maintained, with major components functional but showing signs of being outdated, aligning with the 'fair' criteria.
