Built in 1924 (102 years old).
Condition: Built in 1924, the existing 690 sqft structure is 100 years old. The kitchen features extremely outdated cabinets, tiled countertops, and an old light fixture, indicating a lack of significant renovation for decades. The MLS description and AI analysis explicitly state the property's value is primarily in its development potential, suggesting the existing structure has 'limited intrinsic value for immediate occupancy without substantial upgrades or redevelopment' and is 'likely requiring significant renovation or demolition.' This aligns with the 'tear-down' criteria where the property's value is based solely on the land and its potential for redevelopment, as the structure itself is beyond practical repair for modern living without extensive, costly work.
