Age, as older people are fond of saying, is just a number. A three-bedroom bungalow and two cars set to be auctioned Wednesday are perfect proof are that. On appearance, they haven?t aged a bit.
The home, built in the 1950s, is in sparkling condition, and the cars, while getting up in years, are staggeringly low in mileage. The 1985 Nissan has traveled just 21,712 miles, and the 2003 Toyota Solara?s odometer checks in at a measly 29,479.
The trio may not be brand-new, but they appear to be young at heart.
» House history: The home was built in 1953.
» Major features: The brick- and siding-covered porch-front home contains a living room with brick fireplace, dining room, kitchen, three bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor. There?s a full basement and an enclosed rear patio/porch. It features hot-air heat, central air conditioning, storm doors, a garage and a shed.
» Taxes: $1,725.
» Surrounding area: Located about five minutes from Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport, the home is very close to both Interstate 695 and the Baltimore/Washington Parkway.
» From the agent: “It?s such a strong area,” said Jack Billig, a partner with A.J. Billig and Co. “And there are great schools. This home was occupied by a single person. There haven?t been kids running around. There were no animals. It?s been well-maintained. It?s immaculate.”
