Built in 1977 (48 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1977, is nearly 50 years old. While the kitchen has been remodeled with updated white cabinets and stainless steel appliances, the granite countertops and terracotta-style floor tiles appear somewhat dated. Bathrooms also show updates with modern vanities and fixtures, but the shower enclosure style is not brand new. The overall interior is clean and well-maintained with updated flooring and fresh paint. However, the property's age suggests that other major systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) may be original or older, and the exterior image shows what appear to be window AC units, indicating a lack of central air. These factors, combined with the mixed age of visible renovations, place it in the 'Fair' category, meaning it's aged but maintained, with functional components that show signs of being outdated, and may require minor updates or repairs beyond the cosmetic.
