Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property was built in 1967, making it over 50 years old. While the listing mentions 'some nice updates throughout' and it appears move-in ready with updated laminate flooring, the kitchen and bathroom are significantly dated. The kitchen features older wood cabinets, laminate countertops, and older white appliances (stove, dishwasher). The bathroom has an older vanity, light fixture, and classic but dated tile work. Major systems like heating rely on a wood stove and wall heater, not modern central HVAC. The property is functional and maintained, but the key areas (kitchen and bathroom) and overall systems show clear signs of being outdated, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria.

The property boasts recent updates throughout, ensuring it is move-in ready for immediate occupancy.

Built in 1967, the home is over five decades old, potentially requiring future investments in major systems or structural components despite recent updates.
