Condition Rating
Fair

The property was built in 1970, making it 54 years old. While the description mentions 'newer double pane windows and sliding doors' and the kitchen features 'granite countertops' and 'recessed lighting,' the overall style of the kitchen cabinetry, flooring (linoleum/vinyl), and ceiling fan appears dated, likely from an update 15-25 years ago rather than a recent renovation. The bathrooms also show older vanities, countertops, and tile, suggesting they are either original or were last updated 20-30+ years ago. The living areas feature 1970s-style vaulted ceilings, a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace, and dated carpeting and vertical blinds. The home is well-maintained and functional, but many key components, especially in the kitchen and bathrooms, are outdated in style and would require minor to moderate updates to meet current aesthetic standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
