More Insights
Built in 1972 (53 years old).
Condition: Built in 1972, this property has undergone significant recent cosmetic renovations, making it move-in ready. The listing explicitly states 'new hardwood flooring throughout' and 'fresh new paint,' which are visible in the bedroom images. The bathroom (Image 4) features a modern vanity, sink, faucet, mirror, and light fixture, indicating a very recent and stylish update. While the underlying structure and major systems (HVAC, plumbing, electrical) are likely older due to the build year, the visible areas are well-maintained, and the description does not indicate any functional issues or defects. The property's aesthetic condition aligns with a 'Good' rating, as it has been extensively renovated cosmetically within the last 5-15 years, even if a full system overhaul isn't confirmed.
