Poor
TeardownExcellent
Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1941 with no evidence of recent major renovations. The kitchen and bathroom are highly dated (30+ years) with visible wear on countertops and fixtures. The use of a window AC unit suggests a lack of modern central HVAC, and the listing's focus as an 'investment opportunity' alongside a boarded-up neighboring property indicates the home requires significant rehab to meet modern standards.
