TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1962 (62 years old), the property shows signs of maintenance including newer vinyl windows and a relatively recent roof. However, the listing description identifies it as a 'starter home' with 'possibilities' for investors, suggesting that the kitchen, bathroom, and internal systems are likely dated (>20 years) and require modernization to meet current standards.
