More Insights
Built in 1938 (87 years old).
Condition: Built in 1938, this home has received recent cosmetic updates including fresh paint, new vinyl flooring, granite countertops, and painted kitchen cabinets. The bathroom has been significantly upgraded with dual sinks, a new tub, and glass shower doors. While these updates make the home move-in ready, the kitchen cabinets appear to be older frames that were painted, and the popcorn ceilings indicate that not all aspects have been fully modernized. There's no mention of updates to major systems (HVAC, electrical, plumbing, roof), which are typical considerations for a home of this age. The updates are more in line with regular upkeep and occasional refreshes rather than an extensive renovation, placing it in the 'Fair' category.

Cons
