Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1939, this property shows signs of being aged but maintained. The kitchen features a vintage O’Keefe & Merritt stove, older cabinets, and countertops, indicating it has not been extensively renovated to modern standards. Both bathrooms also present with older fixtures and tile styles, suggesting they are functional but outdated. The presence of a window AC unit rather than central air further points to older systems. While the property boasts charming wood floors, beamed ceilings, and a well-kept exterior/yard, the core components of the kitchen and bathrooms, along with the overall age, align with the 'fair' category, requiring minor updates to meet contemporary tastes.
