Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Poor
TeardownExcellent

Property is extensive renovation needed.

Built in 1904 and explicitly marketed as an unremodeled fixer-upper, this property requires a full-scale renovation to be brought to modern standards. The listing description emphasizes the opportunity to 'build your dream home' and 'renovate for less,' indicating that the current kitchen, bathroom, and major systems are likely original or severely outdated. Furthermore, the functional obsolescence of having only one bathroom for over 2,500 square feet of living space necessitates a significant layout reconfiguration.
