Condition Rating
Poor

Built in 1925, this charming Spanish-style home retains much of its original character, including hardwood floors in the living and dining areas. However, the kitchen and bathroom are significantly outdated, appearing to have been last renovated 30-50 years ago. The bathroom features highly dated pink fixtures and a visible ceiling stain, indicating a need for immediate attention and a full renovation. The kitchen has very old appliances and cabinetry that require substantial updating. Bedroom flooring also appears worn or incomplete. While central heating and air conditioning are present, the property requires substantial rehabilitation in key areas to meet modern living standards.
