More Insights

Built in 1922 (104 years old).
Condition: Built in 1922, the property has undergone cosmetic updates, including wood-style flooring and a fresh paint palette. However, the kitchens and bathrooms, while clean and functional, exhibit styles and features (e.g., cabinet designs, tile patterns, linoleum flooring in one kitchen, older white appliances in one unit) that appear to be 15-30 years old rather than recently renovated. The listing also notes 'unspecified system updates,' suggesting major systems like HVAC, electrical, and plumbing may not be new. The property is well-maintained but shows signs of being aged with outdated components, fitting the 'fair' category.
