Condition Rating
Fair

The property was built in 1937. While it has charming features like hardwood floors and a Viking refrigerator, the kitchen and bathrooms appear dated. The tile flooring in the kitchen, while durable, isn't modern. The overall condition suggests it's been maintained but would benefit from updates to align with current styles. The presence of original features mixed with some updated appliances places it in the 'fair' category.
