More Insights
Built in 1950 (75 years old).
Condition: Built in 1950, this property shows a mix of conditions. The kitchen has been recently updated with modern white shaker cabinets, new countertops, and a contemporary sink/faucet, suggesting a renovation within the last 5-10 years. However, the bathroom is notably dated with older fixtures, vanity, and tile, likely 15-25 years old. Other areas feature a mix of older ceramic tile and newer laminate flooring. The property is being sold 'as-is,' and critically, includes an 'unpermitted' garage conversion, which represents a significant legal and potential financial hurdle for a buyer. While the main house is functional and has seen some recent cosmetic updates, the dated bathroom, inconsistent flooring, and the major issue of the unpermitted addition prevent it from being classified as 'Good.' It requires more than minor updates due to the garage conversion, but the main living areas are not in a state of 'substantial repairs and rehabilitation' for the core structure.
