Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1979, this property is explicitly described as a 'Handyman Special' needing 'TLC.' The images confirm this, showing a highly outdated kitchen with dark wood cabinets, tile countertops, old white appliances, and fluorescent lighting, all requiring a full renovation. Bathrooms are similarly dated with old vanities and fixtures. The interior features extensive wood paneling and older light fixtures, while the exterior deck shows significant weathering and peeling paint. The property requires substantial repairs and rehabilitation to meet modern living standards.
