Condition Analysis

Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1961, the home is well-maintained and move-in ready, but the kitchen and bathrooms are significantly dated. The kitchen features older wood cabinetry and tiled countertops, and the bathroom fixtures reflect a style older than 20 years. While stainless steel appliances have been installed, the property requires aesthetic and system updates to meet modern standards.
