More Insights
Built in 1965 (60 years old).
Condition: Built in 1965, this property's core structures are over 50 years old. While the description mentions 'mid century style,' the visible interiors, particularly the kitchen and bathroom, appear to have been updated approximately 30-40 years ago (likely 1980s-1990s). The kitchen features dated white cabinetry, older white appliances, basic laminate countertops, utilitarian fluorescent lighting, and linoleum flooring. The bathroom is equally basic with a pedestal sink, simple toilet, and a basic shower stall, also with linoleum flooring. These areas, while functional, show significant physical depreciation and would require substantial rehabilitation and full replacement to meet current quality and aesthetic standards. The property's overall condition, with its multiple basic buildings, suggests a need for significant investment to modernize and improve livability.
