This 1963-built property, while maintaining its mid-century modern character with open beam ceilings and large windows, shows significant signs of being outdated in key areas. The kitchen features older white cabinetry, dated laminate countertops, and a mix of appliances that are not current. The bathrooms also present with older vanities and tile, suggesting they are either original or were last renovated 15-30 years ago. The carpeted flooring throughout the living areas and bedrooms, along with some light fixtures, also contribute to an aged aesthetic. While the home appears well-maintained and functional, it requires minor updates to modernize the kitchen and bathrooms and bring the overall interior finishes up to contemporary standards.
