Condition Rating
Fair

Built in 1982, this property is 42 years old. The kitchen features original-style wood cabinets, outdated tiled countertops, black appliances, and dated tile flooring, indicating it has not been significantly updated in over 20-30 years. The bathrooms also show signs of age with older vanities, louvered doors, tiled shower surrounds, and carpet in the master vanity area, all consistent with a property of this vintage that hasn't seen a major renovation. The listing description itself notes it's a 'blank canvas just waiting for your special cosmetic touches' and the analysis highlights 'Requires Cosmetic Updates.' While functional, the property clearly requires minor to moderate cosmetic updates to meet current aesthetic and quality standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1520, other record living area = 1672.
Requires Cosmetic Updates: The interior is presented as a 'blank canvas just waiting for your special cosmetic touches,' suggesting that buyers should anticipate additional investment for personalization and modernization.
High Monthly HOA Fees: The association fee of $788.32 per month is substantial and will be a significant ongoing cost for the homeowner, despite the comprehensive inclusions.
Detached Garage: While oversized and offering extra storage, the garage is detached, which may be less convenient for some buyers compared to an attached garage, especially during inclement weather.
