TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1972, the property is over 50 years old. While it is well-maintained and features brand-new carpet and fresh paint, the presence of popcorn ceilings and older fixtures indicates it is dated. It is functional and move-in ready but likely requires updates to the kitchen, baths, and systems to meet modern standards.
