More Insights

Built in 1948 (78 years old).
Condition: Built in 1948, this property is explicitly noted for 'Older Construction & Potential System Updates' (plumbing, electrical, HVAC), indicating major components likely require significant repair or replacement. While a 'BRAND NEW ROOF' is a positive, the lack of interior photos and the 'endless potential' description suggest the interior, including kitchen and bathroom, is in very dated or poor condition, requiring substantial rehabilitation. The exterior also appears aged and un-updated.
