Condition Rating
Good
The property, built in 1964, has undergone significant and relatively recent interior renovations, aligning with the 'Good' category's criteria of being 'extensively renovated within 5 to 15 years' and 'move-in ready with no immediate renovation required.' The kitchen features modern dark cabinetry, granite countertops, a contemporary mosaic backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and recessed lighting, indicating a substantial update. Throughout the main living areas, there are hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and fresh paint, contributing to a modern and well-maintained aesthetic. While the underlying structure is 60 years old and HVAC details are not provided, the visible updates are comprehensive enough to elevate its condition beyond 'Fair.' The absence of bathroom images prevents a full assessment of those specific areas, but the overall impression from the available photos suggests a property in good, updated condition.

Age of Property: Built in 1964, the home's underlying structure and systems are 60 years old, which may imply potential for future maintenance or upgrades beyond the cosmetic updates mentioned.
