Condition Rating
Fair

The property was built in 1953, making it over 70 years old. While described as 'beautifully maintained and lovingly cared for' and 'turnkey furnished,' the interior, particularly the kitchen and living areas, retains a very dated aesthetic with extensive knotty pine paneling and wood ceilings. The kitchen features older-style pine cabinetry, a vintage-style refrigerator, and a non-traditional freestanding sink unit, despite having a newer stainless steel range. The bathroom appears clean and functional with some minor updates like a patterned floor and possibly a newer faucet, but it's a basic setup. The property is functional and livable, but its major components and overall style are significantly outdated, requiring minor updates to meet current standards, aligning with the 'fair' condition criteria.
