Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property is well-maintained and move-in ready but remains largely in its original 1973 state with minor cosmetic updates. While the living area features newer laminate flooring and a modern light fixture, the kitchen and bathroom are dated with older cabinetry, laminate countertops, and original-style fixtures. The presence of popcorn ceilings, baseboard heating, and older appliances aligns with the 'fair' criteria for a property over 40 years old that has not undergone a full modern renovation.
