More Insights
Built in 1949 (76 years old).
Condition: Built in 1949, this property shows signs of being well-maintained with fresh paint and laminate flooring in living areas. However, the kitchen features dated dark wood cabinets, older white appliances (gas range), basic granite-look countertops, and an outdated fluorescent light fixture, suggesting renovations from 15-30 years ago. The bathrooms also appear basic and dated. While functional and move-in ready, the property requires significant cosmetic updates to the kitchen and bathrooms to meet current quality and style standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
