More Insights

Built in 1965 (61 years old).
Condition: Built in 1965, this property exhibits significant signs of age and outdated features. The kitchen, while featuring a 'preserved 1930s porcelain Magic Chef stove,' has very dated tiled countertops, rustic wood cabinets, and older black appliances, requiring a full modernization. Bathrooms are also severely outdated with 70s/80s style tiling, dark fixtures, and patterned wallpaper. Carpets throughout the home show considerable wear and tear. The property analysis explicitly notes a 'weakness' regarding its age and the potential for 'significant capital investment for system upgrades (e.g., HVAC, electrical, plumbing) or aesthetic renovations to fully modernize it.' This indicates a need for substantial rehabilitation beyond minor updates.
