Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1973, this property is aged but appears to be maintained. However, the kitchen and bathroom are significantly outdated, featuring older appliances, dated tile flooring and countertops, and original-era fixtures. Other areas show dated parquet flooring, acoustic ceiling tiles, and older light fixtures. While functional, the property requires substantial cosmetic updates and modernization, particularly in the key areas of the kitchen and bathrooms, to meet current aesthetic and functional standards. There are no apparent structural or safety defects to warrant a 'Poor' rating.
