Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1953, this property is significantly outdated and requires substantial renovation. The kitchen features very old cabinets, countertops, and linoleum flooring, with no visible modern appliances. The living areas and bedrooms have dated shag carpeting and old light fixtures. Heating is provided by an older wall-mounted unit, indicating a lack of modern HVAC. While the bathroom has a newer vanity and flooring, the wall tiles are very old and dated. The overall condition suggests the property needs extensive rehabilitation to meet current quality and comfort standards.
