Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1948, the property is well-maintained but shows signs of age and outdated finishes, such as laminate countertops in the kitchen and a single bathroom for a three-bedroom home. While functional and move-in ready, the lack of a recent comprehensive renovation and the mention of potential to legalize downstairs spaces for equity gain align with the 'fair' condition criteria for an aged but functional home.
