More Insights

Built in 1959 (67 years old).
Condition: Built in 1959, this property shows signs of age with some functional updates. The kitchen, while described as 'remodeled' and featuring stainless steel appliances, has cabinet styles and laminate countertops that appear to be from an older renovation (likely 15-20+ years ago), not aligning with current modern aesthetics. The half-bathroom has a more recent, modern vanity. However, the living areas feature dated elements such as red paint, wood paneling, popcorn ceilings, and older carpeting. A significant concern is the lack of a specified cooling system, which is crucial for a high desert climate. While maintained and livable, the property requires further cosmetic updates and potential system upgrades to meet contemporary standards.
