More Insights

Built in 1947 (79 years old).
Condition: Built in 1947, this property retains much of its original character, including wood-paneled rooms, which contribute to a dated aesthetic. The kitchen is very basic with older wooden cabinets, a simple sink, and a small mini-fridge, lacking modern appliances and finishes. The bathroom features a dated wall-mounted sink and older tiling. While the home appears maintained and livable, it lacks modern comforts like central air conditioning (only a wall heater is visible) and requires significant updates to the kitchen, bathrooms, and overall interior to meet contemporary standards. It is aged but functional, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
