OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Fair
TeardownExcellent

Property is moderate renovation needed.

However, the kitchen features dated green tiled countertops and backsplash, and the primary bathroom's tile work and jetted tub surround are also stylistically outdated. While functional and clean, these key areas show signs of being outdated and would likely require cosmetic updates to meet contemporary luxury standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
