Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1976, this property is explicitly marketed as a 'Fixer' and an 'opportunity to renovate.' The images confirm a highly dated interior throughout. The kitchen features original-style wood cabinets, laminate countertops, older white appliances, and fluorescent lighting. Bathrooms have outdated vanities, light fixtures, and tile work. Other areas show old carpets, popcorn ceilings, and dated light fixtures. While the description mentions a 'solid foundation,' the cosmetic and functional components require substantial rehabilitation to meet current standards, aligning with a 'Poor' condition score.

Cons
Fixer-Upper Condition: The property is explicitly marketed as a 'fixer,' indicating it requires substantial renovation and investment to reach its full potential and modern standards.
