Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1959, this duplex shows signs of partial updates but remains largely dated. While the flooring has been upgraded to laminate and tile, and the kitchen features newer stone countertops, the cabinetry is aged and shows visible wear. A notable deficiency is the unfinished water heater nook with exposed plywood in the kitchen area. The property utilizes older wall heaters and roof-mounted evaporative coolers rather than modern central HVAC. It is functional and habitable but requires minor repairs and cosmetic modernization to reach a 'good' condition.
