More Insights
Built in 1950 (75 years old).
Condition: Built in 1950 and offered for the first time in over 30 years, this property shows significant age and lack of updates. The images reveal extremely dated interiors, including a kitchen with old white flat-panel cabinets, laminate countertops, an outdated range hood, and fluorescent lighting, all requiring a complete renovation. Bathrooms feature equally old fixtures, vanities, and tiling. Throughout the home, there is worn, dated carpet, old linoleum flooring, and basic, outdated light fixtures. The exterior also shows signs of neglect with unkempt landscaping and worn concrete. The property requires substantial repairs and rehabilitation, particularly for its major systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) which are likely original or very old, and extensive cosmetic updates to meet modern standards.
