Condition: Built in 1985, this property is aged but appears well-maintained with some functional updates like newer kitchen appliances, some flooring, a solar system, and central HVAC. However, the kitchen cabinets, countertops, all bathrooms (vanities, fixtures, lighting), and bedroom carpets are significantly dated and show signs of being outdated, requiring minor to moderate cosmetic updates to meet current standards.
