More Insights
This property has been on the market for 49 days.
Built in 1947 (79 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1947, benefits from valuable system upgrades including copper plumbing, central air conditioning, central heating, double-pane windows, and a new hot water tank, which are crucial for functionality and safety. However, the kitchen features very dated yellow cabinetry, older appliances, and an overall aesthetic that requires a full renovation. The single bathroom is also extremely outdated with old fixtures, vanity, and tiling. While the major systems are functional and updated, the highly visible and frequently used kitchen and bathroom areas require substantial cosmetic rehabilitation to meet modern standards, pushing it beyond 'minor updates' but not to the point of structural or safety defects that would categorize it as 'poor'.
