More Insights
Built in 1942 (83 years old).
Condition: Built in 1942, this property features a charming exterior and well-maintained original hardwood floors, along with recent paint and central AC/Heat. However, the kitchen and bathrooms are severely outdated, reflecting renovations from 30-50+ years ago or original features. The kitchen has very dated blue tiled countertops, backsplash, and flooring, along with older black appliances and an old fluorescent light fixture. The main bathroom features vintage pink subway tiles and fixtures. While clean and functional, these areas require substantial rehabilitation and modernization to meet current quality standards and buyer expectations. The listing description itself implies significant renovation needs with 'customize your dream home from the ground up' and notes 'Age of Core Systems' as a weakness, suggesting potential future costs for major system replacements (plumbing, electrical) due to the property's age.
