Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1959, this duplex presents a mixed condition. While Unit 1 has undergone extensive and recent modern renovations, featuring high-end appliances (Miele, Subzero), dark hardwood floors, and contemporary finishes, Unit 2 shows significant signs of age. Unit 2's kitchen has older cabinets and appliances, and its bathroom is notably outdated with tiled countertops and fixtures that appear to be from a renovation 20-30+ years ago, or potentially original. Although major systems are reported to be functional and the roof is only 7 years old, the dated kitchen and bathroom in Unit 2 require substantial updates to meet current quality and aesthetic standards, preventing an overall 'Good' rating despite the excellent condition of Unit 1.
