More Insights
Built in 1961 (65 years old).
Condition: Built in 1961, this property is over 60 years old and the listing explicitly states it 'likely requires significant updates and renovations to meet modern standards' and implies 'substantial renovation costs to modernize the home.' The absence of interior photos, particularly for the kitchen and bathrooms, combined with the 'value-add' description, strongly suggests these areas are original or severely outdated, requiring full rehabilitation. Major systems (electrical, plumbing, HVAC) are also likely well past their expected lifespan and will need substantial upgrades to meet current standards and comfort.
