Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1970, this property is aged but appears well-maintained with functional major components. The kitchen features updated stainless steel appliances, but the knotty pine cabinets and tile countertops are significantly dated. Similarly, the bathrooms have dated wood vanities, tile countertops, and fixtures. Widespread green carpeting throughout the living areas and bedrooms also contributes to an outdated aesthetic. While the property includes modern upgrades like a tankless water heater, the overall style and key areas like the kitchen and bathrooms would require minor to moderate updates to meet contemporary standards, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria.
