Condition: The property, built in 1996, is well-maintained and boasts a classic Craftsman style with beautiful wood ceilings and flooring in many areas. However, the kitchen and bathrooms, while functional, feature dated light wood cabinetry, tiled countertops, and fixtures that are not up to current luxury standards. Carpeting also appears dated. The listing description itself suggests remodeling, indicating that significant updates would be required to modernize the home, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria for a property built over 20 years ago with functional but outdated components.
