Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1951, the home shows partial updates including newer laminate flooring and a modern fireplace insert, but remains dated overall. The laundry area features older cabinetry and wallpaper, and the use of window AC units alongside an older roof-mounted HVAC suggests aging systems. The listing's mention of 'light DIY projects' confirms it needs minor updates to meet modern standards.
