Built in 1980 and 1990, this duplex shows significant signs of wear and deferred maintenance. Interior images reveal stained carpeting, peeling wallpaper, dated oak vanities, and popcorn ceilings. The listing explicitly states the front house needs remodeling, and the use of portable AC units indicates a lack of modern central HVAC systems, placing it in the rehab category.
