Poor
TeardownExcellent
Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1940 with original hardwood floors and dated systems including a natural gas wall furnace. The listing explicitly calls for a buyer to 'roll up their sleeves,' and photos show an unfinished exterior structure with exposed house wrap, indicating the need for significant rehab rather than minor updates.
