Property is land value only, full reconstruction required.
Built in 1890 (134 years old) with no recorded major renovations to core systems, kitchen, or baths.

At only 816 square feet with a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom layout, the existing living space is quite limited and may require expansion to suit modern buyer expectations.
