Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1972, this property is over 50 years old. While it appears well-maintained and clean, the kitchen features original-style wood cabinets, dated white appliances (coil-top stove), and basic laminate countertops, all set on older ceramic tile flooring. The visible half-bathroom also shows dated tile and a basic vanity. The living areas have older carpeting and finishes. The property is functional and livable but requires significant aesthetic updates to the kitchen, bathrooms, and flooring to meet current quality and style standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
