TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1926, this duplex shows a mix of conditions. While the description notes updates in the upper unit, the images reveal a very dated lower unit/studio area with older wall heaters, basic cabinetry, and aging finishes that require modernization and minor updates.
