More Insights
Built in 1953 (72 years old).
Condition: Built in 1953, this property is well-maintained and features a significantly upgraded kitchen with modern white shaker cabinets, subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and Corian countertops. The flooring throughout the main living areas is also updated. However, the bathroom shown, while clean, has an older vanity and light fixture, indicating it has not been updated to the same modern standard as the kitchen. A notable weakness is the lack of central air conditioning, which is a significant comfort and value factor for a home of this age. While move-in ready, the property's age, partially updated bathrooms, and missing central AC align with the 'Fair' category, suggesting it requires minor updates or repairs to fully meet modern expectations.
