Poor
TeardownExcellent
Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1945 and marketed specifically as an investor/developer opportunity, the property is over 80 years old with no evidence of major system updates. The exterior shows significant wear and peeling paint, and the listing's call for 'modernization' and 'sweat equity' indicates the kitchen, baths, and systems likely require a full rehab to meet current standards.
