Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1981, this property is 43 years old. The interior images, particularly of the kitchen, reveal outdated features such as original-style wood cabinets, laminate countertops, and a popcorn ceiling. While the exterior appears well-maintained, the interior clearly requires significant cosmetic updates and modernization, especially in the kitchen and likely the bathroom (not pictured). The description 'Bring your personal taste and touch and make it your own!' further supports the need for renovation. However, there are no visible signs of structural defects, safety issues, or major system failures that would classify it as 'Poor'. The property is functional but shows clear signs of being outdated, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.

Spacious Single-Level Layout with Private Garage: A rare, large 835 sqft 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom single-level unit featuring a private one-car garage and in-unit washer/dryer.
Highly-Rated School District: Located within a district boasting top-rated elementary (Doyle, 9/10) and high schools (University City, 9/10).

Cons
Dated Interior & Renovation Potential: The description suggests the unit requires 'personal taste and touch,' indicating a need for significant interior updates and potential renovation costs.
