More Insights

Built in 1924 (102 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1924, benefits from significant recent system upgrades including a new roof, copper plumbing, water softener, and solar system, which are major advantages. However, the interior, particularly the kitchen with its dated wood cabinets and black tile countertops, requires a full cosmetic renovation. While the living room features newer-looking laminate flooring and one bathroom has some updated elements (vanity, subway tile), other areas show signs of age, such as popcorn ceilings and older light fixtures. The property is functional and maintained due to the system upgrades, but cosmetically outdated, requiring substantial aesthetic investment to meet modern standards.
