More Insights
Built in 1949 (77 years old).
Condition: Built in 1949, this 75-year-old property shows no evidence of significant recent renovations. The exterior appears dated, and the listing description explicitly notes that it 'likely requiring significant updates to major systems (electrical, plumbing, HVAC) and aesthetics to meet modern standards.' As a former long-term rental, it likely received minimal updates. The lack of interior photos prevents specific assessment of kitchen and bathroom features, but given the age and general condition indicators, these areas are almost certainly outdated and in need of substantial rehabilitation. The property requires significant investment to bring it to modern standards and comfort.
