Condition Rating
Fair

This 1922-built property is well-maintained and features a recently remodeled kitchen with newer appliances and an updated bathroom shower, as seen in the images. Hardwood floors are in good condition throughout. However, the property's age, the absence of a modern cooling system (central AC), and the manually operated vintage garage door indicate that while some areas have been updated, the home has not undergone a full, extensive renovation of all major systems. The overall condition reflects an aged home maintained with regular upkeep and occasional updates, with some major components showing signs of being outdated or missing, aligning with the 'Fair' criteria.
