Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is move-in ready.
This duplex, built in 1955, is move-in ready due to recent updates including newer flooring, countertops, refreshed bathrooms, and a recently replaced roof. While the bathrooms feature modern vanities and lighting, the kitchens retain very dated cabinet styles and appliances (e.g., built-in ovens, electric coil stovetops) that would likely be a priority for future renovation to meet current standards. The property is well-maintained, but the kitchens prevent an 'Excellent' rating.
