Condition Analysis

Poor
TeardownExcellent

Property is extensive renovation needed.

Built in 1963, this property is in mostly original condition and requires substantial rehabilitation. The kitchen and bathrooms are severely outdated with 1960s-style cabinetry, tile, and wallpaper. While the roof and electrical panel have been recently updated, the interior features significant wear, including aged wood paneling and worn flooring. Crucially, the swimming pool is in a state of major disrepair and requires complete reconstruction. The listing is a conservatorship sale sold 'as-is,' specifically marketed as a renovation or redevelopment opportunity.
