Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property is exceptionally well-maintained by the original owner but remains largely in its original 1987 condition. While it features a new HVAC system and an updated stainless steel refrigerator, the kitchen and bathrooms retain original oak cabinetry, tile countertops, and dated fixtures. The presence of popcorn ceilings and older carpeting throughout further reflects its age without significant modern renovations, fitting the criteria for a fair rating.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 7841, living area = 1875.

As an original-owner home since 1987, the property demonstrates exceptional maintenance and includes a brand-new HVAC system, offering significant mechanical reliability.
