Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1980, this property is well-maintained and move-in ready, but the kitchen and bathrooms show clear signs of being outdated. The kitchen features older white appliances (except for a newer stainless steel refrigerator), traditional dark wood cabinets, and dark countertops. The bathrooms have functional but dated tile work and vanity styles. While clean and in good condition, these areas would benefit from cosmetic updates to meet current aesthetic standards, aligning with the 'fair' category criteria for properties built over 20 years ago with renovations 15-30 years old or no major renovations since construction.
