Condition Rating
Fair

While the property benefits from recent cosmetic updates such as new LVP flooring and fresh paint, making it move-in ready, the kitchen and bathrooms show significant signs of being outdated. The kitchen features dated white tile countertops and backsplash, older style white cabinets, and fluorescent panel lighting. Similarly, the bathrooms have older vanity styles, gold-toned faucets, and strip lighting. Built in 1983, the property is over 40 years old, and despite the recent cosmetic refresh, the core elements of the kitchen and bathrooms would require minor to moderate updates to meet current modern standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
