More Insights
Built in 1904 (122 years old).
Condition: Built in 1904 and explicitly marketed as an 'early 1900's fixer' requiring a 'major and magical makeover.' Images confirm this, showing exposed studs and insulation in what appears to be the kitchen area, indicating it is gutted or non-functional. Bathrooms are extremely dated with specific, old-fashioned styles (e.g., bamboo walls, extensive wood paneling, clawfoot tub enclosure) and worn fixtures. Interior flooring, wallpaper, and light fixtures are also significantly outdated and show considerable wear, necessitating substantial repairs and rehabilitation throughout the property.
