More Insights

Built in 1930 (96 years old).
Condition: Built in 1930, this property shows significant signs of age and deferred maintenance. The description explicitly states it 'needs some love' and a 'reimagined vision,' and has a 'cat urine smell that will require some remediation.' The kitchen features very outdated appliances, worn cabinets, and old flooring, requiring a complete overhaul. The bathroom is a mix of old and slightly newer elements, but the tub and floor are very dated and worn. Flooring throughout the visible areas is heavily scuffed and stained. The property requires substantial repairs and rehabilitation to be brought to modern living standards, aligning with the 'poor' condition criteria.
