TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1974, this property is over 50 years old and remains largely dated despite cosmetic refreshes. While the interior has fresh paint and new carpet, the kitchen and bathrooms feature finishes and appliances (such as the electric coil cooktop and fluorescent light box) that appear to be over 20-30 years old. It is functional and move-in ready but requires modernization to meet current standards.
