More Insights

Built in 1964 (62 years old).
Condition: Built in 1964, this property's interior, particularly the kitchen and bathrooms, is significantly dated. The kitchen features original or very old wood cabinets, white laminate countertops, and outdated white appliances (except for a slightly newer dishwasher), along with dated lighting and a floral wallpaper border. The bathrooms also exhibit very old vanities, countertops, fixtures, and tile work, with some featuring gold-framed showers and heat lamps. Popcorn ceilings and dated carpet/tile flooring are prevalent throughout. The MLS description itself highlights the need to 'reimagine' and 'transform' the home, indicating that substantial renovation and rehabilitation are required to meet modern standards, aligning with the 'poor' condition criteria for properties built over 30 years ago with major components showing significant age and requiring extensive updates.
