Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1998, this property is well-maintained and move-in ready but retains its original late-90s aesthetic, including maple cabinetry and granite countertops. While functional and clean, the interior finishes and fixtures are stylistically dated and have not undergone a major renovation in over 25 years, placing it firmly in the 'Fair' category.
