More Insights
Built in 1901 (125 years old).
Condition: The property was built in 1901, making it a very old 'vintage home' as described. While the exterior appears maintained in the provided images, there are no interior photos to assess the condition of the kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, appliances, or other internal systems. Given its age and the listing's own weakness analysis stating it 'may require significant updates, maintenance, or renovations to meet modern standards and expectations,' it's highly probable that major components are functional but significantly outdated. This aligns with the 'Fair' category, indicating it requires minor updates or repairs to meet current standards, rather than being in 'Poor' condition with significant defects affecting safety or structural integrity, which is not evident from the exterior.
