Built in 1922 (104 years old).
Condition: Built in 1922, this duplex shows signs of regular maintenance but has not undergone a full, recent renovation. While Unit 1 features somewhat updated kitchen cabinets and stainless steel appliances, Unit 2's kitchen is very dated with older appliances and linoleum flooring. Both bathrooms retain their 'vintage appeal' with retro tile floors and older fixtures, indicating a need for modernization. The property is functional and livable, but major components and aesthetics are outdated, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria.
