More Insights

Built in 1968 (58 years old).
Condition: Built in 1968, the property is largely in its original condition, as confirmed by the listing description and images. The kitchen features highly dated wood cabinets, tiled countertops, and older appliances, requiring a full renovation. Both bathrooms are also severely outdated with original fixtures, vanities, and tile work (e.g., yellow/beige tiled shower). While major structural updates like a newer roof, dual-pane windows, and an updated sewer line are positive, the interior, including flooring and light fixtures, requires substantial rehabilitation and cosmetic updates to meet modern standards.
