Built in 1937 (89 years old).
Condition: Built in 1937, this property requires substantial renovation and modernization. The kitchen features highly dated tiled countertops, old-style cabinets with exposed hinges, and an older white gas range, indicating a renovation from several decades ago or original components. Bathrooms are also significantly outdated, with one featuring carpeted flooring (a major detractor), vintage vanities, and another with 70s/80s peach and green tiled showers and countertops. While the home has 'timeless character' and 'richly grained wood interiors,' the listing itself notes 'Significant Renovation Required' and 'Potential for Dated Systems' (HVAC, electrical, plumbing). The overall condition, particularly in the key areas of kitchen and bathrooms, suggests a need for major rehabilitation to meet modern standards of comfort and functionality.
