Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1977, this 47-year-old property is functional but dated. While it features some surface updates like laminate flooring, the kitchen retains older tile countertops and cabinets, and the bathrooms appear to be from a 15-30 year old renovation cycle. The listing description explicitly mentions 'outstanding potential' and 'make it your own,' confirming the need for modern updates to the kitchen, baths, and likely aging systems.
