TeardownExcellent
Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1984 (40 years old) with no evidence of modern updates. The interior features original popcorn ceilings, dated 1980s-style tile countertops with wood trim, and aging carpets. The listing description explicitly invites buyers to 'transform this space,' confirming the need for a full cosmetic rehab of the kitchen, bathroom, and flooring.
