More Insights
Built in 1966 (59 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1966, has received recent cosmetic updates such as fresh paint, new flooring, and updated lighting, making it move-in ready. However, the kitchen features visibly dated appliances (double wall oven, cooktop, dishwasher) and older cabinet styles. While the bathrooms have some newer fixtures and cosmetic refreshes, the vanities appear older. These factors indicate that the property has not undergone an extensive renovation within the last 15 years, and major components show signs of being outdated, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
