Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1941, this property shows significant age and requires substantial rehabilitation. The kitchen features very dated linoleum flooring, older cabinets, and appliances, necessitating a full renovation. The single bathroom is also highly outdated with old mosaic floor tiles and beige wall tiles. Hardwood floors throughout the main living areas and bedrooms show considerable wear and tear, requiring refinishing. While the property appears maintained, the core components and aesthetics are severely outdated, indicating that major systems and finishes likely require extensive updates to meet contemporary standards and comfort.
