Condition Rating
Fair

Built in 1986, this property is 38 years old and shows its age with largely original or very dated finishes. The kitchen features outdated honey oak cabinets, tiled countertops, and dated blue/green tile flooring, requiring a full renovation to meet modern standards. Carpets throughout the home, particularly on the stairs and in one bedroom, appear worn and stained. While some systems like the whole-home generator and tankless water heater are modern upgrades, the overall aesthetic and key areas like the kitchen and likely bathrooms (no images provided) are significantly outdated. The property is functional but clearly needs substantial cosmetic updates and TLC, aligning with the 'Fair' category.

Cons

Requires Renovation/TLC: The description explicitly states the home is 'ready for your personal touch and a bit of TLC,' indicating potential for immediate and ongoing investment in updates or repairs.
Dated Construction (1986): Built in 1986, the home's age may imply older systems, finishes, or design elements that could require modernization beyond the already upgraded generator and water heater.
Niche Aesthetic Appeal: The distinct 'cabin on a mountain' rustic style, while charming, caters to a specific market segment and may not appeal to buyers seeking more contemporary or traditional home designs.
