Poor
TeardownExcellent
Property is extensive renovation needed.
The property underwent its last major renovation and expansion in 1993, making the updates 31 years old. According to the criteria, renovations older than 30 years fall into the 'Poor' category. Visuals confirm a dated kitchen with 90s-era cabinetry and older appliances. While the home is functional and 'classic,' the age of the systems and finishes suggests a need for a comprehensive rehab to meet modern standards.
