Built in 1913 (112 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1913, is well-maintained with a permitted addition completed approximately 18 years ago and updated bathrooms (likely within the last 10-15 years). However, the kitchen is significantly outdated with white tile countertops, older appliances, and old lighting, which would require a major renovation for most buyers. While functional, this key area shows signs of being outdated, preventing a 'Good' score which implies no immediate renovation is required.
