Built in 1951 and described by the listing agent as being in 'average condition,' this property shows signs of being an aged but functional home. The lack of seller-provided reports and the 'subject to interior inspection' clause suggest that while the home is livable and currently tenant-occupied, it likely features outdated kitchen and bathroom styles, older appliances, and systems that have not been comprehensively updated in the last 15 to 30 years.
