This 1961 Mid-Century Alexander home is sold 'as-is' after serving as a long-term rental for 40 years, which typically indicates dated interior finishes and deferred cosmetic maintenance. While the property boasts excellent infrastructure updates—including a new A/C (2025), hydro-jet sewer line (2024), and pool pump (2026)—the kitchen and bathrooms likely require modernization to meet current market standards. The combination of functional major systems and an outdated interior fits the 'fair' criteria.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 10019, living area = 1225.
