Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1954, this property is 70 years old. While the description mentions 'vaulted ceilings' and the exterior appears maintained, the interior images, particularly the bathroom, show dated finishes. The bathroom features a basic vanity, older-style beige tiles, and a standard tub, indicating it has not been extensively renovated recently. The living room also presents an older aesthetic with exposed beams and dated decor. The absence of kitchen photos, combined with the bathroom's condition and the property's age, suggests the kitchen is likely also outdated. The property is functional and livable but requires minor to moderate updates to the kitchen and bathrooms, as well as potentially other cosmetic and system upgrades, to meet current quality and style standards. This aligns with the 'Fair' category, indicating an aged home maintained through regular upkeep but showing signs of being outdated.

Vaulted Ceilings: Vaulted ceilings throughout the home create an open and airy atmosphere, enhancing the sense of space and modern appeal.

Central & Convenient Location: Strategically located near major freeways, schools, shopping centers, the public library, City Hall, and local parks, offering excellent accessibility and a wide array of amenities.
Cons
Age of Property & Potential Updates: Built in 1954, the home is 70 years old, which may indicate a need for significant updates to major systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) and aesthetics to meet modern standards and avoid deferred maintenance.
Lack of Mentioned Modern Amenities/Upgrades: The property description does not highlight any recent major renovations or modern amenities (e.g., central air conditioning, fully updated kitchen/baths), which could be a drawback for buyers seeking move-in ready homes with contemporary features.
Price Reductions: Multiple price reductions from the original list price of $715,000 to the current $650,000 suggest the property may have been initially overpriced or has faced challenges in attracting buyers at higher price points.
