The property was built in 1969, making it 55 years old. The MLS description explicitly states it is a 'Complete fixer upper,' which, combined with its age, strongly suggests it has not undergone major renovations in the past 50 years. The emphasis on the '16,500+ square foot lot' and 'Endless possibilities' further indicates that the property's value is likely based on the land and its potential for redevelopment, aligning with the 'tear-down' criteria where the structure is beyond practical repair or its value is solely in the land.
