More Insights
Built in 1971 (54 years old).
Condition: Built in 1971, this property has received recent cosmetic updates including new flooring and fresh paint, making it move-in ready. However, the kitchen features an older style with dated cabinets, countertops, and light fixtures, indicating an older renovation rather than a recent modern update. Bathroom conditions are not visible but are likely in need of updates. The age of major systems (HVAC, plumbing, electrical) is unspecified, suggesting they may be original or from an older renovation and could require future attention. While well-maintained, the property requires minor updates to key areas to meet current aesthetic and functional standards.
