Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1924, this charming Tudor is well-maintained but shows its age. While the kitchen features stainless steel appliances, the cabinetry, countertops, and overall style, along with the bathrooms, appear to have been updated 15-30 years ago, not recently. The absence of central air conditioning and the general age of the property suggest that while it's move-in ready, it requires minor updates and modernization to meet current standards and buyer expectations.
