More Insights

Built in 1948 (78 years old).
Condition: Built in 1948, this home shows its age through several key areas. The kitchen is significantly outdated with tile countertops, older cabinets, and dated flooring, requiring a full renovation to meet modern standards. While one bathroom has some newer elements like a vanity and shower, the other retains older fixtures and tile work. The hardwood floors throughout the living areas and bedrooms show considerable wear and tear. Positive updates include solar panels and an upgraded electrical panel, indicating some investment in infrastructure. However, the overall aesthetic and condition of major components like the kitchen and flooring suggest the property is aged but maintained through regular upkeep and occasional updates, falling squarely into the 'Fair' category.
