More Insights

Built in 1945 (81 years old).
Condition: Built in 1945, this property requires substantial repairs and rehabilitation, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms. The images clearly show these areas in a state of significant disrepair, lacking functional fixtures, cabinets, and counters, with exposed walls and outdated flooring. An exposed electrical panel in one bathroom is a safety concern. While some exterior updates (paint, backyard landscaping) are shown, the interior's core functional spaces are not move-in ready and necessitate extensive renovation, aligning with the 'Poor' condition criteria.
