More Insights
Built in 1911 (114 years old).
Condition: The property was built in 1911 and has not undergone significant renovations in over 50 years, as indicated by the listing description and visual evidence. The kitchen features extremely outdated 70s/80s style cabinets, laminate countertops, old appliances, and fluorescent lighting. Bathrooms are similarly dated with original-era or very old tile work (pink/peach/blue), fixtures, and vanities. The overall interior shows extensive wear and tear with dated flooring, carpets, and light fixtures throughout. The description itself emphasizes the 'endless possibilities to build a dream estate' on the expansive lot, and the property analysis explicitly states the existing structure is 'likely requiring extensive renovation or a complete rebuild.' The value of this property is clearly in the land, with the current structure being functionally obsolete and a prime candidate for demolition to facilitate new construction.
