Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1979, this property is 45 years old and explicitly described as needing 'some love' and being 'ready for your personal touch.' While it has 'great bones,' indicating structural soundness, the age suggests that major systems (HVAC, plumbing, electrical) and finishes, including the kitchen and bathrooms, are likely original or severely outdated. This implies substantial repairs and rehabilitation are required, rather than just minor updates, to bring it to modern standards of comfort and functionality. The lack of interior photos prevents a detailed assessment of specific features, but the overall context points to a property requiring significant investment in renovations.
