Built in 1938 (88 years old).
Condition: Built in 1938, the property shows signs of regular maintenance and some updates like central A/C and recessed lighting. However, the kitchen features dated white appliances, tile countertops, and an older light fixture, while the bathrooms also exhibit dated tile and vanity styles.
