More Insights
Built in 1961 (65 years old).
Condition: Built in 1961, the property is aged but appears functional. The kitchen features dated wood cabinets, laminate countertops, and older tile flooring, likely from a renovation 15-30 years ago. The bathroom is severely outdated with a dated color scheme, fixtures, and shower enclosure. Hardwood floors throughout the living areas and bedrooms show significant wear and require refinishing, and the carpet in the additional room is stained and worn. While major systems are functional, the property requires substantial cosmetic and functional updates to meet contemporary standards, particularly in the kitchen and bathroom, but does not show signs of structural or safety defects that would classify it as 'poor'.
