Condition Rating
Fair

The property was built in 1967. While the description mentions fresh paint and new carpet on the staircase, the images show an aged kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen appliances and bathroom fixtures appear dated. The overall condition suggests the home has been maintained but requires updates to meet modern standards. Therefore, a 'Fair' rating is appropriate.
