Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1998, this 26-year-old property is in original condition. The kitchen and bathrooms feature dated oak cabinetry, tile countertops with wood trim, and older black appliances. While the home appears well-maintained and functional, it falls into the 'Fair' category as it is over 20 years old and requires cosmetic updates to meet modern market expectations.
