Built in 1947 (79 years old).
Condition: Built in 1947, this duplex has received recent cosmetic updates in Unit 6567, including new laminate flooring, fresh paint, and a stainless steel oven in the kitchen, making it move-in ready. However, the bathrooms, while functional, feature older tile and basic fixtures that appear dated. The property relies on evaporative coolers and wall heaters, which are older systems. While well-maintained, the property shows its age with a mix of recent updates and outdated components, aligning with the 'fair' criteria of being aged but maintained with occasional updates and functional but outdated major components.

Cons

Limited Showings for Occupied Unit: Unit 6565 is tenant-occupied and not available for interior showings, which may hinder potential buyers from fully assessing the property's condition and features.
Lack of Bathtubs: Each unit features two showers but no bathtubs, which could be a drawback for families with small children or tenants who prefer bathing options.
