More Insights

Built in 1952 (74 years old).
Condition: Built in 1952, this property shows no evidence of major renovations in the past 50+ years. The kitchen features original-style wood cabinets, outdated green laminate/tile countertops, old white appliances, and dated linoleum flooring. The bathroom has very old blue tiled countertops and sink, consistent with mid-century design. The overall condition, coupled with the listing description explicitly suggesting a 'complete tear-down' for redevelopment, indicates that the structure itself has minimal value beyond the land.
