More Insights
Built in 1974 (52 years old).
Condition: Built in 1974, this property is 50 years old and explicitly stated to 'need TLC' and 'significant renovation' in the listing. While one bathroom shows some partial updates (newer vanity, mirror, shower tile), other areas like the family room feature dated dark wood paneling and older ceramic tile flooring. The absence of kitchen photos suggests it is likely in a dated condition requiring substantial updates. The overall impression is that the home requires significant investment to modernize and rehabilitate.
