Condition Rating
Fair
The property was built in 1940. While the exterior appears to be well-maintained, the age suggests that the kitchen and bathrooms are likely outdated and require updates. Without interior images, it's difficult to assess the exact condition, but given the age, a 'Fair' rating is appropriate, indicating the need for minor updates or repairs.
