Condition Rating
Fair
The property, built in 1965, is 59 years old. While it appears well-maintained and functional, it shows clear signs of age and outdated features. The kitchen has some updated stainless steel appliances (refrigerator, double wall oven), but the cabinets, countertops, and tile flooring are dated. The single bathroom is very basic with older tile and fixtures. A significant factor is the lack of central heating and cooling, relying instead on wall-mounted units and window ACs, which indicates major systems are outdated. The overall aesthetic, lighting, and electrical devices are not modern. It requires cosmetic updates and a significant HVAC upgrade to meet current standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria of being aged but maintained with functional but outdated components.
