More Insights

Built in 1954 (72 years old).
Condition: Built in 1954, this property is explicitly marketed as a 'fixer-upper' requiring 'dream restoration.' The kitchen, while functional, features dated appliances and worn cabinetry/countertops. One bathroom is very outdated with mosaic tiles, while the other shows some partial updates but still reflects the home's age. Flooring throughout, including hardwood and carpet, exhibits significant wear and tear. The overall condition, coupled with the description's mention of 'potential for outdated infrastructure,' indicates a need for substantial repairs and rehabilitation to bring it to modern standards.
