More Insights

Built in 1978 (47 years old).
Condition: Built in 1978, this property is well-maintained with unique architectural elements. However, the kitchen, featuring distinctive handcrafted tilework, and the bathrooms, while clean and functional, exhibit styles that are notably dated and have not undergone extensive modern renovation within the last 15-20 years. While the overall structure and exterior appear in good condition, the interior finishes, particularly in key areas like the kitchen and bathrooms, would likely require aesthetic updates to meet current buyer preferences. This aligns with the 'fair' condition criteria, indicating an aged but maintained home where major components are functional but show signs of being outdated.
