Condition: Built in 1961, this property shows signs of regular upkeep with some key updates like double-pane windows and central heating/cooling. However, the kitchen is significantly outdated with original or very old light wood cabinets, laminate countertops, dated appliances (including an electric cooktop), and patterned vinyl flooring. While functional, it requires substantial aesthetic modernization to meet current standards. The overall condition suggests a home that is aged but maintained, with major components functional but showing signs of being outdated, aligning with a 'fair' condition.
