More Insights
Built in 1966 (59 years old).
Condition: Built in 1966, this property is over 50 years old. While the listing states the kitchen and floors have been upgraded, and images show hardwood and tile flooring in good condition, the style of the kitchen cabinets and especially the bathrooms (white tile countertops, dated light fixtures) suggests these renovations were completed 15-30 years ago rather than recently. The home is well-maintained and move-in ready, but the key areas like kitchen and bathrooms are functional yet show signs of being outdated in style, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
