Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Fair
TeardownExcellent

Property is moderate renovation needed.

Built in 1984, the property appears to be in mostly original condition or has had only minor cosmetic updates over the decades. The kitchen features dated white tile countertops, older cabinetry, and white appliances that lack modern luxury appeal. Bathrooms and flooring (carpeting) also reflect styles from 20-30 years ago. While the home is well-maintained and functional, it requires significant modernization to meet current market standards for its price point.
