Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1923, this historic unit features 'updated kitchen and bathroom' as per the description. While clean and functional, the images reveal that these updates are not recent or high-end. The kitchen has light wood cabinets, black granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, but the overall style and basic tile flooring suggest an update from 15-20 years ago rather than a contemporary renovation. The bathroom features a basic white vanity, standard tub/shower with subway tile, and simple fixtures, indicating a functional but not modern aesthetic. The parquet flooring throughout is well-maintained but an older style. The presence of a portable heater suggests a lack of modern central HVAC. The property is well-maintained for its age and move-in ready, but the updates are dated, and major systems like HVAC appear to be older, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
