More Insights

Built in 1978 (48 years old).
Condition: Built in 1978, this property is explicitly described as being in 'original and rough condition,' requiring 'extensive and immediate renovations throughout.' The images confirm this, showing severely outdated elements including worn, discolored carpets, old patterned tile flooring, original wood kitchen cabinets with tile countertops, dated appliances (except for a newer refrigerator), and bathrooms with original vanities and fixtures. The listing itself highlights the need for 'substantial investment' and suggests major systems (HVAC, plumbing, electrical) and all finishes are likely outdated and may require full replacement. This aligns with the 'poor' condition criteria, indicating a need for substantial repairs and rehabilitation.
