If you gut most of it you might as well gut the last room as well. the old electrical and plumbing almost always needs to be replaced. Even if it works right now, when it goes it is a bigger pain to do it after you are all moved in and replace it piecemeal.

We have (believe it or not) a standing work order for electrical from 1994. We bought in '82. One of my twin daughters keeps trying to talk us into moving into the other side of the duplex she owns, but her rent is $300 more than our mortgage. She and her twin sister (a real estate agent) keep telling us to sell as a fixer-upper. For crying out loud, we bought it as a fixer-upper. But we had 4 kids and have played host family for 3 grandkids. :)
