More Insights
Built in 1952 (73 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1952, the property is described as a 'beautifully updated residence,' and the exterior image supports a modern, well-maintained aesthetic. This suggests recent and extensive renovations, likely within the last 5-15 years, making it move-in ready with no immediate renovation required. While interior images of the kitchen and bathrooms are not provided, the 'beautifully updated' description implies these key areas have also been modernized to a good standard. The property analysis also lists 'Updated Residence' as a strength. However, without specific details on the renovation dates or the condition of major systems, it cannot be confidently rated as 'Excellent'.
