More Insights

Built in 1955 (71 years old).
Condition: Built in 1955, this property is an older home that requires substantial repairs and rehabilitation. The kitchen features severely outdated cabinets, worn laminate countertops, an old gas range, and dated tile flooring, with missing cabinet doors. The bathroom is equally outdated with vintage green wall tiles, floral floor tiles, an old tub, and a mismatched, basic vanity. Carpets throughout the living areas and bedrooms are worn and stained, and walls show significant scuffs and marks, indicating a lack of recent renovation. While the description mentions a 'solid foundation' and approved expansion plans, the current interior condition, particularly the kitchen and bathroom, is very poor and would be uncomfortable to live in without extensive modernization.
