More Insights

Built in 1920 (105 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1920, is explicitly marketed as requiring 'extensive renovation' and 'rehab' to unlock its potential. Images confirm this, showing a very outdated kitchen with old appliances, cabinets, and flooring (Image 3), and at least one bathroom in a similar condition (Image 4). While some areas appear to have received minor updates (e.g., Image 5 & 6), the overall state, including boarded-up windows on the exterior, indicates that substantial repairs and rehabilitation are necessary. Major systems are likely outdated, aligning with the 'poor' condition criteria.
