The property, built in 1925, retains vintage charm with exposed brick and wood rafters. The kitchen features a large island, but the appliances and bathroom fixtures appear dated. While the space is well-maintained, it would benefit from updates to modernize the kitchen and bathroom. The building's age suggests it's been maintained but likely hasn't undergone extensive recent renovations.
