Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1970, this property is explicitly marketed as a 'renovation opportunity or blank canvas' requiring 'substantial updates and investment.' While the main kitchen features some modern updates like gray shaker cabinets, light countertops, and a mosaic backsplash, the presence of a very dated 'bonus kitchen' with older appliances and cabinets, along with popcorn ceilings, dated fireplace tile, and mixed laminate flooring throughout, indicates a significant need for rehabilitation. The overall condition suggests that while livable, it requires extensive work to meet current quality standards and buyer expectations, aligning with the 'poor' category.
