Condition Rating
Fair
The property was built in 1976, making it 48 years old. While the listing mentions an 'updated kitchen' and 'fresh paint & carpet,' and the images confirm new carpet and paint, the kitchen appliances (older coil-top stove, white refrigerator) and the style of the bathroom vanity with tiled counter suggest that the updates are not recent or comprehensive enough to meet 'Good' standards. The kitchen cabinets and countertops appear to be a moderate update, but not high-end or brand new. The heating system appears to be an older wall-mounted unit. Overall, the property is clean and functional, but shows signs of being aged with some outdated components, fitting the 'Fair' category.
