Condition Rating
Fair

The property was built in 1984, making it 40 years old. While the description mentions a 'newly renovated 3/4 bath' upstairs and the exterior has been 'recently stained and resealed,' the kitchen appears significantly dated with older white appliances, wood-look laminate countertops, and traditional light wood cabinets. The main level bathroom also shows older fixtures and finishes. Flooring includes older carpet and what appears to be linoleum/vinyl in the kitchen. The overall aesthetic is rustic, but many key interior components, especially the kitchen, show signs of being outdated rather than recently updated. The lack of central cooling is also a factor. It is maintained and functional, but requires minor updates to meet modern standards beyond the one renovated bathroom.
