More Insights

Built in 1936 (90 years old).
Condition: Built in 1936, this home retains much of its original character, including worn hardwood floors that require refinishing. While the kitchen features modern appliances, its overall design with fabric curtains instead of lower cabinets, wood paneling, and a corrugated ceiling is very rustic and dated. The bathroom has some recent cosmetic updates like a new vanity and backsplash, but the flooring and tub surround are basic. The property lacks central cooling, and the listing notes potential for age-related system updates. It is functional and livable but requires substantial cosmetic and potential system updates to meet modern standards and comfort.
