Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Fair
TeardownExcellent

Property is moderate renovation needed.

The property features a 100-year-old farmhouse that is described as having interior renovations; however, the lack of interior photos prevents a higher rating. While the 1,800 sq ft steel shop is a modern, well-maintained structure with updated electrical and cooling systems, the primary residence's age and 3-bedroom, 1-bath configuration suggest it likely requires minor updates to meet current market standards for a higher condition score.
