Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1952, this property is well-maintained and features refinished original hardwood floors and a recently replaced roof. While move-in ready and clean, the kitchen and bathroom maintain a vintage aesthetic with older cabinetry, tile work, and appliances that lack modern updates. It fits the 'fair' criteria as an aged property maintained through regular upkeep but showing signs of being stylistically outdated.
