Condition Rating
Good
Built in 1980, this property has undergone significant updates, as stated in the description ('Renovated Ranch Home,' 'updated bathroom'). The images confirm this with consistent light wood laminate flooring, fresh white paint, and updated light fixtures throughout. The kitchen features painted white cabinets with modern hardware, stainless steel appliances (including a Bosch dishwasher), and clean countertops, making it functional and aesthetically pleasing. Bathrooms are also updated with modern vanities and tiling. While the updates are clean and move-in ready, the 'relatively basic' fit and finish mentioned in the description, along with the style of the kitchen cabinets (likely painted originals or basic replacements), suggest it's not a brand-new, high-end renovation. This aligns well with the 'Good' category, indicating a well-maintained, updated home that requires no immediate renovations and is within the 5-15 year renovation timeframe for its current condition.

Cons
Basic Interior Finishes: The interior's 'fit and finish was kept relatively basic,' suggesting that while updated, some buyers may desire further investment for higher-end 'mod cons'.
