More Insights

Built in 1929 (97 years old).
Condition: Built in 1929, this property is in an extremely dilapidated state, requiring substantial repairs and rehabilitation throughout. The images reveal severe neglect, including extensive peeling paint on the exterior and interior, heavily damaged and outdated flooring, and significant deterioration in the kitchen and bathroom. The kitchen is missing cabinet doors, has damaged countertops, and shows clear signs of water damage under the sink, with no visible modern appliances. The bathroom features a stained, old bathtub, a basic and damaged vanity, and cracked, dirty floor tiles. Ceilings have holes, and exposed wiring is visible in multiple areas, including the crawl space. The presence of window AC units suggests a lack of central cooling/heating. While the listing describes it as a 'diamond in the rough' with 'potential for transformation,' implying the structure might be salvageable, its current condition is unlivable and necessitates a complete gut renovation, including major system replacements (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) and likely structural repairs, aligning with the 'poor' classification.
