TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1952, the property is dated but well-maintained. While it boasts excellent recent system upgrades—including new HVAC (2023), plumbing (2023), and water heater (2024)—the interior features like wood-paneled ceilings and original hardwoods are aged. The lack of front yard landscaping and the 'unknown permits' status suggest it needs cosmetic modernization and minor updates to reach current market standards.
